Journal ArticleDOI

Large artery stiffness and pulse wave reflection: Results of a population-based study

TL;DR: PAI, which is obtained by direct measurement above radial artery, was practically identical with the mathematically derived CAI in the studied population sample, and therefore, it is a suitable parameter for studying the phenomenon of wave reflection.
Journal ArticleDOI

Blood pressure and low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol lowering for prevention of strokes and cognitive decline: a review of available trial evidence

TL;DR: A new, large randomized controlled trial is needed to determine the optimal level of BP and LDL-C for the prevention of recurrent stroke and cognitive decline.
Journal ArticleDOI

The association between low 25-hydroxyvitamin D and increased aortic stiffness.

TL;DR: A clear significant and independent negative association between 25(OH)D and aortic PWV is found and subjects with lowest vitamin D status showed the highest arterial stiffness.
Journal ArticleDOI

Threshold for diagnosing hypertension by automated office blood pressure using random sample population data.

TL;DR: The aim of the present study was to determine an AOBP threshold corresponding to the 140/90 mmHg manual office BP using data from a large random population sample, and this value may be used as a threshold for diagnosing hypertension using AOBp.
