Blood Haemoglobin Concentration Is Directly and Independently Related with Pulse Wave Velocity, a Measure of Large Artery Stiffness

Blood Haemoglobin Concentration Is Directly and Independently Related with Pulse Wave Velocity, a Measure of Large Artery Stiffness

High haemoglobin level has been associated with metabolic syndrome, elevated blood pressure (BP), and increased mortality risk. In this cross-sectional study, we investigated the association of blood haemoglobin with haemodynamics in 743 subjects, using whole-body impedance cardiography and pulse wa...
