Pulse Wave Velocity in the Eldely

Aortic pulse wave velocity (PWV) is a noninvasive technique that can estimate aortic stiffness or organic change quantitatively. The authors examined the correlation between age and the PWV value in 113 subjects and also examined the relationship between atherosclerotic associated diseases and PWV. A positive correlation was observed between age and the PWV value. No significant difference was found in the PWV value between groups with and without risk factors of atherosclerosis. No significant difference was observed in the PWV value between groups with and without a history of atherosclerotic disease.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
