I just wanted to see if this line of reasoning is correct.

Arteriosclerosis in the aorta

• 
  Decrease: Arterial compliance of where the arteriosclerosis is --> decreased Diastolic P
  
  Increase: Systolic P & Pulse pressure

Arteriosclerosis in the downstream arteries

• 
  Decrease: Arterial compliance of where the arteriosclerosis is, Pulse Pressure decreases
  
  Increase: TPR, Systolic P & Diastolic P Unequally (Diastolic increased more than Systolic), increase MAP
