Aging is Associated With an Earlier Arrival of Reflected Waves Without a Distal Shift in Reflection Sites

BACKGROUND: Despite pronounced increases in central pulse wave velocity (PWV) with aging, reflected wave transit time (RWTT), traditionally defined as the timing of the inflection point (T(INF)) in the central pressure waveform, does not appreciably decrease, leading to the controversial proposition...
