Key result
In patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, the 1-year change in brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity was significantly associated with changes in systolic blood pressure (β=0.615, p<0.001).

What are the determinants of 1-year changes in brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus?
Effect estimate: β 0.615
p-value: p=<0.001
In patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, the 1-year change in brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity is most strongly associated with changes in blood pressure.
Yun et al. (2008) conducted an observational in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (n=189). Observational (changes in clinical parameters) was evaluated on Determinants of 1-year change in maximal baPWV (β 0.615, p=<0.001). In patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, the 1-year change in brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity was significantly associated with changes in systolic blood pressure (β=0.615, p<0.001).
