Why the study?
Does the assessment of the aortic line of elasticity using polynomial regression analysis correlate with cardiovascular risk factors and predict cardiovascular events?
Does the assessment of the aortic line of elasticity using polynomial regression analysis correlate with cardiovascular risk factors and predict cardiovascular events?
Quantitative evaluation of the aortic line of elasticity using polynomial regression can differentiate intrinsic from extrinsic elastic properties and serves as a predictor for cardiovascular events.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
Aortic elasticity metrics associate with risk factors and diltiazem response; leaves open prospective validation for event prediction.
