Key result
Serum adiponectin level was an independent predictor of peripheral arterial stiffness in hypertensive patients (OR 0.932).

Hypoadiponectinemia may serve as a biomarker for vascular risk in hypertension; leaves open whether.

Hypoadiponectinemia is independently associated with increased peripheral arterial stiffness in hypertensive patients, particularly those with metabolic syndrome.
Chen et al. (2017) conducted a cross-sectional in Hypertension (n=101). Serum adiponectin concentration was evaluated on High peripheral arterial stiffness (baPWV >14.0 m/s) (OR 0.932, 95% CI 0.881-0.985, p=0.012). Serum adiponectin level was an independent predictor of peripheral arterial stiffness in hypertensive patients (OR 0.932).
