Brachial‐ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) and the cardio‐ankle vascular index (CAVI)
are both used to evaluate arterial stiffness. The aim of the present study is to determine …

Vitamin D deficiency and high brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) are each
independently associated with higher incidence of mortality and cardiovascular (CV) …

Objectives: Brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) is one of few indices of arterial
stiffness that has been incorporated into a routine clinical setting. baPWV is associated with …

Abstract Context and Objective Soluble Klotho (sKlotho) is a circulating hormone with
cardiovascular-renal protective effects. Whether sKlotho predicts estimated glomerular …

Hyperuricemia is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease and is associated with increased
arterial stiffness in high-risk populations. However, given the possible sex-related …

Purpose Elevated urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR) is an established risk factor for
microvascular disease in the general population. However, it is unclear whether UACR is …

Background: Brachial–ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) can be easily measured in an
observer-independent way, but lacks robust population-based validation in terms of fatal …

Pulse wave velocity (PWV) was a good marker of arterial stiffness and could predict
cardiovascular (CV) outcomes. Recently, estimated PWV (ePWV) calculated by equations …

This retrospective study included 299 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and biopsy-
confirmed diabetic nephropathy (DN) to investigate the prognostic value of alkaline …

Arterial stiffness is an important pathophysiological factor linking cardiovascular disease and
kidney disease. Controversy exists as to whether arterial stiffness causes renal function …
