Monitoring cardiovascular disease risk in children with cystic fibrosis using arterial stiffness: A new perspective
This is the first study to evaluate the use of PWV and AIx in the follow-up of children with CF and showed that arterial stiffness measured with AIx increased at follow-up. The use of markers of arterial stiffness in CF from childhood onwards may enable early detection and monitoring of CVD risk and future prevention.
