متن کاملMetabolic syndrome and age-related progression of aortic stiffness.
UNLABELLED Aortic stiffness measured from pulse wave velocity (PWV) was studied during a six-year period in a population of subjects with zero to three and more cardiovascular (CV) factors involving hypertension, body mass index, dyslipidemia, hypertriglyceridemia, and hyperglycemia. During the follow-up, the increase in PWV was significantly higher in subjects with three and more CV risk facto...
