No significant association of serum klotho concentration with blood pressure and pulse wave velocity in a Chinese population

Abstract Klotho, an important anti-aging protein, may be related to elevated blood pressure (BP) and arterial stiffness. We aimed to investigate associations between the serum klotho concentration and peripheral/central BP and arterial stiffness based on the carotid–femoral pulse wave velocity (cfPW...
