3.7 PULSE WAVE VELOCITY IS AN INDEPENDENT RISK FACTOR FOR CARDIOVASCULAR EVENTS, MORTALITY AND DECLINE IN RENAL FUNCTION IN PATIENTS WITH TYPE 1 DIABETES
Purpose: The prognostic significance of carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cfPWV) remains to be determined in patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D).
