Arterial Stiffness and Pulse Wave Reflection in Young Adult Heterozygous Sickle Cell Carriers
Objective: Pulse wave velocity (PWV) and aortic augmentation index (AI) are indicators of arterial stiffness. Pulse wave reflection and arterial stiffness are related to cardiovascular events and sickle cell disease. However, the effect of these parameters on the heterozygous sickle cell trait (HbAS...
