(RUDN University) A team of scientists from the Medical Institute of RUDN University compared two factors of vascular ageing -- CF-PWV and CAVI. Both of these parameters determine the main indicator of vascular ageing -- arterial stiffness -- with high precision. However, they are influenced by age and certain metabolism abnormalities in different ways. The study is expected to help cardiologists to find effective diagnostic methods for individual patients. The results of the work were published in the Journal of Hypertension.
