Impact of cardiometabolic risk factors and its management on the reversion and progression of arterial stiffness
摘要
Arterial stiffness is associated with a higher risk of adverse cardiovascular outcomes. Cardio-metabolic diseases increase the risk and progression of arterial stiffness, and its optimal management along with lifestyle interventions may decrease its impact on the risk of cardiovascular outcomes. In this review, we highlight recent evidence on the impact of cardiometabolic risk factors and their management on arterial stiffness and identify potential areas of opportunity for future research.
