BACKGROUND:Brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) is the simple, non-invasive, gold-standard method for assessing arterial stiffness. However, baPWV has been shown to be associated with renal dyfunction, with a few reports demonstrating an association between baPWV and postoperative acute kidney...
