Elevated Brachial-Ankle Pulse Wave Velocity Is Independently Associated with Microalbuminuria in a Rural Population
Microalbuminuria is a marker of generalized endothelial dysfunction resulting from arterial stiffness or insulin resistance, and brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) is a good measure of arterial stiffness. We aimed to investigate whether elevated baPWV is independently associated with microal...
