Background: Arterial stiffness has been associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in some patient populations.
Objectives: The aims of this study were to investigate (1) whether there is an association between arterial stiffness, as measured by the Mobil-O-Graph, and risk for CVD in a population of individuals with intellectual disability and (2) whether arterial stiffness can predict the risk for CVD.
Methods: This cross-sectional study included 58 individuals who participated in wave 4 of the Intellectual Disability Supplement to the Irish Longitudinal Study on Aging (2019-2020).
