Central hemodynamics in relation to blood lead in young men prior to chronic occupational exposure

Central hemodynamics in relation to blood lead in young men prior to chronic occupational exposure

Background: Aortic pulse wave velocity (aPWV) predicts cardiovascular complications, but the association of central arterial properties with blood lead level (BL) is poorly documented. We therefore assessed their association with BL in 150 young men prior to occupational lead exposure, using baselin...
