Relationship of Arterial Stiffness Index and Pulse Pressure With Cardiovascular Disease and Mortality

BACKGROUND: Vascular aging results in stiffer arteries and may have a role in the development of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Arterial stiffness index (ASI), measured by finger photoplethysmography, and pulse pressure (PP) are 2 independent vascular aging indices. We investigated whether ASI or PP...
