Higher estimated artery stiffness linked to higher cancer risk
The adjusted hazard ratio—a comparison of cancer rates over time—was 1.48 for higher versus lower estimated artery stiffness.The adjusted hazard ratio—a comparison of cancer rates over time—was 1.48 for higher versus lower estimated artery stiffness.
