文摘

Vascular aging is a dominant factor associated with increased arterial stiffness. Enhanced arterial wave reflection is also a direct manifestation of vascular aging. Central better than brachial blood pressure is a marker for vascular aging. Brachial blood pressure as a surrogate of central blood pressure has a large error. Studies are required to show central blood pressure is a better managing strategy.
