Article Synopsis
- Aortic pulse-wave velocity (PWV) is a strong predictor of cardiovascular and all-cause mortality, especially in individuals with type 2 diabetes and those with impaired glucose tolerance.
- Participants in the study showed higher aortic PWV compared to controls, leading to increased mortality risks that were independent of other factors like age, sex, and systolic blood pressure (SBP).
- The findings suggest that PWV may serve as a valuable measure for assessing vascular health and overall cardiovascular risk, potentially more informative than traditional SBP measurements.
