Pulse wave velocity is elevated in individuals with serious mental illness, indicating advanced vascular age in two-thirds of the population studied.
Is pulse wave velocity elevated and vascular age advanced in people with serious mental illness?
People with serious mental illness have elevated pulse wave velocity and advanced vascular age, which may contribute to their excess cardiovascular mortality.
Tasa de eventos absoluta: 0% vs 0%
We describe differences in major arterial vessel health that may account for some of the excess cardiovascular event rate/excess mortality in people with SMI.
