Long- and short-term air pollution exposure and measures of arterial stiffness in the Framingham Heart Study

Background: Studies of air pollution exposure and arterial stiffness have reported inconsistent results and large studies employing the reference standard of arterial stiffness, carotid-femoral pulse-wave velocity (CFPWV), have not been conducted. Aim: To study long-term exposure to ambient fine par...
