The article presents the results of study of arterial stiffness, ankle-brachial index and pulse pressure in adult population of Tomsk in the framework of the project ESSAY RF (Epidemiology of Cardiovascular diseases in the Regions of the Russian Federation). 1379 men and women of 24-64 y.o. were studied by using volumetric sphygmography (VaSera VS-1500, Fukuda Denshi, Japan).The optimal values of CAVI (cardio-ankle vascular index), as a marker of arterial stiffness, were considered in group of relatively healthy persons in russian population. CAVI values in whole studied population were analyzed in comparison with data of other researchers and in association with CVD and CVD risk factors.
