Combination therapy in hypertension: From effect on arterial stiffness and central haemodynamics to cardiovascular benefits☆
Measures of arterial aging have the potential to improve risk prediction beyond traditional risk scores. Such biomarkers that fulfil most, or some of the strict criteria of a surrogate end-point are aortic stiffness (IIa level of recommendation in European Guidelines and Position Papers) and central...
