Impact of kidney function on stiffness of small conduit arteries in hypertension and obesity
Severe obesity and reduced eGFR synergistically increase radial artery stiffness, a phenomenon not observed in essential hypertension. This study suggests that moderate chronic kidney disease exacerbates vascular alterations in obese individuals, highlighting the need for further research on the role of small conduit arteries in cardiovascular risk.
