Determinants of pulse wave velocity in healthy people and in the presence of cardiovascular risk factors: 'establishing normal and reference values'.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors established reference and normal values for Carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (PWV), a direct measure of aortic stiffness, based on a large European population.

Determinants of pulse wave velocity in healthy people and in the presence of cardiovascular risk factors

TL;DR: This study is the first to establish reference and normal values for PWV, combining a sizeable European population after standardizing results for different methods of PWV measurement.
Journal ArticleDOI

Noninvasive (Input) Impedance, Pulse Wave Velocity, and Wave Reflection in Healthy Middle-Aged Men and Women

TL;DR: In this article, the relationship between arterial function indices, such as pulse wave velocity and augmentation index with parameters derived from input impedance analysis, is still incompletely understood, and the authors conclude that, in healthy middle-aged subjects, the age-related increase in arterial stiffness (pulse wave velocity) is not fully paralleled by an increase in vascular impedance, suggesting a role for agedependent modulation of aortic cross-sectional area.
