High pulse pressure (PP) and aortic root diameter (AoD) are hallmarks of arterial stiffness or vascular aging and they are considered as risk factors for age-related cardiovascular disease, including heart failure (HF). However, the relationship between PP and AoD in patients with heart failure (HF) is uncertain. This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between PP and AoD in the middle-aged and the elderly with HF.
