Small artery elasticity

1. Small artery elasticity is associated with heart failure in humans.

   “SAE was significantly associated with future CHD, stroke, and heart failure.”

1. Small artery elasticity is associated with cardiovascular disease in humans (HR 0.71 per standard-deviation increase; 95% CI 0.61–0.83).

   “the hazard ratio for any CVD per standard-deviation increase in SAE was 0.71 (95% confidence interval: 0.61, 0.83; P < 0.0001).”
