Cardiac complications are frequent and include endothelial dysfunction in patients with coronary anomalies. So far, the presence of endothelial dysfunction in patients with no coronary lesions has not been demonstrated. Peripheral arterial tonometry (Endo-PAT) measures the microvascular function in response to local ischaemia and has been validated in adult population, but its use in children is scarce.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"S1047951112001357_abs2\" sec-type=\"general\"><jats:title>Aim<\/jats:title><jats:p>To evaluate endothelial dysfunction in children as a long-term complication after Kawasaki disease using Endo-PAT.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"S1047951112001357_abs3\" sec-type=\"methods\"><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>We evaluated two groups of subjects: (1) Kawasaki disease patients over 11 years of age, diagnosed for &gt;5 years, with no coronary lesions, or any other risk factors for cardiovascular disease; (2) control group of individuals without cardiovascular risk factors. Patients and controls were clinically accessed.

Kawasaki disease patients presented significant lower reactive hyperaemia index (1.68 \u00b1 0.49 versus 2.31 \u00b1 0.53; p = 0.001). Augmentation index was similar in both groups (\u221210 \u00b1 7 versus \u221211 \u00b1 5; p &gt; 0.005).
