Why the study?
Is estimated pulse wave velocity associated with the risk of stroke in middle-aged men?
Is estimated pulse wave velocity associated with the risk of stroke in middle-aged men?
Estimated pulse wave velocity serves as an independent predictor for stroke risk in middle-aged men.
May inform stroke risk assessment in middle-aged men; extends associations but leaves open prospective validation.
These findings demonstrate that ePWV is independently associated with the risk of stroke in middle-aged men.
