2.4 AMBULATORY AORTIC STIFFNESS, INDEPENDENTLY OF STATIC, ASSOCIATES WITH NARROWER RETINAL ARTERIOLAR CALIBERS IN HYPERTENSIVES: THE SAFAR STUDY

Background: Arterial stiffness measured under static conditions reclassifies significantly cardiovascular (CV) risk and associates with organ damage, including narrower retinal arterioles. However, arterial stiffness exhibits diurnal variation, thus single static stiffness recordings do not correspo...
