P6.13 AMBULATORY AND OFFICE CENTRAL SYSTOLIC BLOOD PRESSURE IS MORE CLOSELY ASSOCIATED WITH LEFT VENTRICULAR MASS THAN AMBULATORY AND OFFICE PERIPHERAL SYSTOLIC BLOOD PRESSURE IN A YOUNG NORMOTENSIVE POPULATION

Background: High blood pressure (BP) at a young age and increased left ventricular mass (LVM) are associated with increased risk of future cardiovascular mortality.
