P146 METHODOLOGICAL ASPECTS AND DETERMINANTS OF HYPEREMIA-MEDIATED SLOWING IN PULSE WAVE VELOCITY: A GENERAL POPULATION STUDY

Background: Recent studies proposed that deceleration in pulse wave velocity (PWV) following hyperemia might reflect arterial distensibility and endothelial function. We therefore investigated methodological aspects and clinical determinants of newly proposed indexes of such flow-mediated slowing (F...
