Key result
Central systolic blood pressure and pulse pressure independently correlated with left ventricular mass index, and central systolic blood pressure correlated with the E/A ratio (p<0.001).
Cross-Sectional (n=400)
p-value: p=<0.001
Central systolic blood pressure and pulse pressure are independently correlated with left ventricular mass index and diastolic function in healthy individuals without cardiovascular disease.
Central BP associations with LV mass and diastolic indices are hypothesis-generating; leaves open incremental value over brachial BP in prospective studies.

Yu et al. (2018) conducted a cross-sectional in Healthy individuals without cardiovascular disease (n=400). Central blood pressure parameters was evaluated on Correlation with left ventricular mass index and E/A ratio (p=<0.001). Central systolic blood pressure and pulse pressure independently correlated with left ventricular mass index, and central systolic blood pressure correlated with the E/A ratio (p<0.001).
