Brachial‐ankle pulse wave velocity as a measurement for increased carotid intima‐media thickness: A comparison with carotid‐femoral pulse wave velocity in a Chinese community‐based cohort

Abstract Carotid‐femoral pulse wave velocity (cfPWV) and brachial‐ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) act as two most frequently applied indicators to evaluate arterial stiffness. Limited studies have systematically compared the relationships between cfPWV/baPWV and increased carotid intima‐media thic...
