Artery stiffness-based age linked to cardiovascular events

Early vascular aging based on artery stiffness was linked to a higher cardiovascular event rate than normal vascular aging, with a hazard ratio of 1.44.Early vascular aging based on artery stiffness was linked to a higher cardiovascular event rate than normal vascular aging, with a hazard ratio of 1.44.
