Determinants of carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity progression in hypertensive patients over a 3.7 years follow-up

Objective: The role of risk factors on the progression of arterial stiffness has not yet been extensively evaluated. The aim of the current longitudinal study was to evaluate the determinants of the PWV progression over a 4 years follow-up period in hypertensive subjects. Materials and Methods: We e...
