Wave Reflection And Arterial Stiffness In The Prediction Of 15-Year All-Cause And Cardiovascular Mortalities: A Community-Based Study

The value of increased arterial wave reflection, usually assessed by the transit-time dependent augmentation index (AI) and augmented pressure (Pa), in the prediction of cardiovascular events may have been underestimated. We investigated whether the transit-time independent measures of reflected wav...
