Predictive value of estimated pulse wave velocity for cardiovascular and all-cause mortality in individuals with obesity

Abstract Background Estimated pulse wave velocity (ePWV) has revealed excellent performance in predicting cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. However, whether ePWV predicts all-cause mortality and CVD mortality in populations with obesity remains elusive. Methods We performed a prospective cohort inc...
