Association of bilateral brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity difference with peripheral vascular disease and left ventricular mass index.

Association of bilateral brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity difference with peripheral vascular disease and left ventricular mass index.

Unequal arterial stiffness had been associated with cardiovascular risks. We investigated whether an association existed between unequal arterial stiffness indicated by bilateral brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) difference and ankle-brachial index (ABI), baPWV, echocardiographic parameters...
