There is now increasing evidence that high pulse pressure, which is an indicator of large
artery stiffness, is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular mortality, especially coronary …

Numerous studies have shown that increases in diastolic (DBP) and systolic (SBP) blood
pressure are positively associated with cardiac events. Since DBP typically varies by smaller …

Studies on the usefulness of blood pressure as a prognostic factor in cardiovascular disease
have more often involved investigations of the levels of diastolic or systolic blood pressure …

Objectives The aim of the study was to assess the combined effects of pulse pressure (PP)
and heart rate (HR) on cardiovascular mortality in a large French population. Design The …

Excess mortality associated with increased pulse pressure among middle-aged men and …

Background: Hypertension is a dominant characteristic in the prediction of cardiovascular
diseases (CVDs). We aimed to evaluate the association of blood pressure measurements …

A wide pulse pressure (PP) is a marker of increased artery stiffness and high cardiovascular
(CV) risk. To investigate the prognostic value of ambulatory PP, which is currently unknown …

OBJECTIVES We sought to determine whether pulse pressure (PP), a measure of arterial
stiffness, is an independent predictor of the incidence of coronary heart disease (CHD) …

A wide pulse pressure (PP) may constitute an independent predictor of cardiovascular
morbidity and mortality. We assessed the reference values of brachial clinic PP, according to …

Systolic and diastolic blood pressures are the exclusive mechanical factors usually
considered as predictors of cardiovascular risk in populations of normotensive and …
