Carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (PWV), a measure of large artery stiffness, is an important predictor of cardiovascular (CV) events in general population and also in hemodialysis (HD) patients. In general population PWV is strongly associated with age and blood pressure (BP), findi...
PWV was determined using the SphygmoCor system (Atcor Australia) and CIMT measured 1 cm proximal to the flow divider by B-mode ultrasound. Plaque was quantified according to its presence at the carotid and femoral artery. Multiple regression analysis was used to examine the relation between PWV,...
Several devices are available for carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cfPWV) measurement, and a cut-off value for reference cfPWV has been established. However, discrepancies between devices have been reported.The aim of the study was to establish the concordance of two common techniques (Complior...
Carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cfPWV) and its risk factors may differ between various populations. Few studies have compared the risk profiles associated with cfPWV in different ethnic populations. The study population included 4321 subjects from Shanghai, China (n = 1272, age 75.0 ...
There is little available data on carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cf-PWV) in subjects with subclinical hypothyroidism (SCH). We aimed to analyze the association between SCH and cf-PWV using baseline data from the Brazilian Longitudinal Study of Adult Health (ELSA-Brasil). We included subject...

(P<0.0001), lower subendocardial viability ratio (P=0.003), higher 24h systolic ABPM (P<0.0001) and 24h pulse pressure (P<0.0001).#The results of our study show that non-dialysis CKD patients with higher cfPWV levels also have higher systolic and pulse pressure (central aorta and 24h ...
The aim of this study was to create reference cfPWV percentile curves for healthy children. The initial sample consisted of 350 girls and boys aged 8 to 11聽years. The cfPWV per age and sex were generated using the lambda-mu-sigma (LMS) technique. The effects of sex, age, arterial ...
Described here is a new method for determination of carotid–femoral pulse wave velocity (PWV) based on arterial diameter waveform recording by an ultrasound system. The study was carried out on 120 consecutive patients. Carotid–femoral PWV was determined using a tonometric technique (PWVpp, ...
Mean PWV was higher in men and women when assessed by 24-hour AG (men: 9.1卤 1.8 and women: 9.2卤 1.5 m/s p=0.10) compared with SC (men: 7.9卤1.5 and women: 8.3卤1.6 m/s p<0.001). In women, SC-PWV was moderately correlated with 24-hour AG-PWV (r=0.43, p<0.001, Figure ...
