Association of Cardio-Ankle Vascular Index With Tonometric Measures and Vasodilator Function Across a Spectrum of Cardiovascular Risk Burden
Our findings suggest that CAVI relates to both central and peripheral artery stiffness though is not identical to tonometry measures. CAVI associates with microvascular but not conduit artery vasodilator function consistent with the interrelation of large artery stiffness with small vessel dysfunction.
