Why the study?
To establish early vascular aging markers using cardio-ankle vascular index arterial stiffness and evaluate their prognostic significance for cardiovascular events.

EVA markers from CAVI may aid CV risk prediction in middle-aged adults; hypothesis-generating and requires prospective validation.
Do markers of early vascular aging based on arterial stiffness predict cardiovascular events in an adult urban population?
Markers of early vascular aging derived from volumetric sphygmography (CAVI) are significant independent predictors of cardiovascular events and mortality in an adult urban population.
