Decrease in tone of the ascending aorta.

Explanation:
"in the left ventricle while the second remained in the ascending aorta. ... vessels we measured actually decreased and that we underestimated the decrease in tone. ..."

Ослаблен тонус восходящей аорты reduced aortic distensibility

Explanation:
Или -distensibility of the aorta was decreased.
Еще вариант: Compliance of the aorta......
http://hyper.ahajournals.org/cgi/content/full/35/2/637
Compliance and distensibility are wall properties of large arteries, which may play a role in cardiovascular disease. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether the influence of age on these vessel wall properties differs between vascular territories and is gender-dependent. In a population sample of 498 men and women 20 to 79 years of age, diameter, distensibility, and compliance coefficient of the muscular brachial artery were measured with an echo-tracking device. Distensibility of the aorta was measured with the use of pulse-wave velocity.
http://www.egyptheart.org/EHJ1/EHJ1/ehj5001p075.htm Mean values for ascending aorta distensibility, stiffness index, LVMI( left ventricular mass index), and plasma ET( plasma endothelin) were:
Thus, increased plasma ET in IDDM patients is associated with reduced aortic distensibility and increased stiffness index and LVMI. However, we did not find any statistically significant correlation between plasma ET and aortic distensibility, stiffness or LVMI.
Aortic distensibility (cm2/dyne):
It was calculated from the changes in echocardiographically measured aortic diameters and brachial artery pulse pressure using the formula (10, 11)

…..Biophysical Properties of the Normal-sized Aorta in Patients with Marfan Syndrome
…….. matched control subjects underwent MR flow mapping in four locations in the normal-sized aorta (1, ascending aorta; 2, thoracic descending aorta; 3, descending aorta at the level of the diaphragm; and 4, abdominal descending aorta). Distensibility at each location and flow wave velocity between locations were calculated.
RESULTS: Compared with the control subjects, patients with Marfan syndrome had decreased aortic distensibility at three of the four locations

Ослаблен тонус восходящей аорты the pressure in the ascending aorta is decreased

Explanation:
he pressure in the ascending aorta is decreased

Fractional diastolic and systolic pressure in the ascending aorta are
related to the extent of coronary artery diseas

Пояснение: я предложил вариант с pressure потому, что говорить о тонусе аорты мне кажется не совсем корректно. Применительно к аорте, которая является сосудом эластического типа, уместнее понятие эластичность а не тонус.
Если не pressure, то возможно лучше написать:
ascending aorta elasticity is decreased/impaired.

-> Согласен, но меня смущает tone применительно к аорте

neutral

Ann Nosova: with "elasticity"- it is OK but not really common (tone is used more often in experiments)

-> Спасибо, Анна. elasticity все же часто встречается (см. мое последнее добавление
