The usefulness of SAGE score in predicting high pulse wave velocity in hypertensive patients: a retrospective cohort study

IntroductionAortic stiffness assessed by pulse wave velocity (PWV) is an important predictor to evaluate the risk of hypertensive patients. However, it is underutilized in clinical practice. We aimed to identify the optimal cutoff SAGE score that would indicate a risk PWV ≥ 10 m/s in Brazilian ambul...
