For the Arteriograph, however, the predictors included personal characteristics such as BMI, sex, and hypertension status, which are less directly associated with arterial stiffness than SphygmoCor’s predictors are. 4.1. Number of Measurements Used in PWV Estimation When one is translating the cf...
The participants were evenly distributed by age (in decades), sex, hypertension status (normotensive or hypertensive), and body mass index (BMI) (normal weight, overweight, or obese). All of the invited participants provided their medical history, and those with arrhythmias, cerebrovascular sickness...
