Morphological and functional measures of large arteries in adolescents should be normalized to account for changes during adolescence, with relative body mass and blood pressure acting as key determinants.
May support normalizing adolescent arterial measures for body mass and BP; cross-sectional data leave causality and practice change open.
Morphological and functional measures of large arteries should be normalized to take account of changes during adolescence and skewed distributions. Relative body mass, systolic blood pressure and/or pulse pressure are determinants of IMT and elasticity.
