Is digital vascular function related to cardiovascular risk factors in the Framingham Heart Study?
Digital vasodilator function correlates with traditional and metabolic cardiovascular risk factors, highlighting its potential utility in cardiovascular risk assessment.
Reactive hyperemia produced a time-dependent increase in fingertip pulse amplitude. Digital vasodilator function is related to multiple traditional and metabolic cardiovascular risk factors. Our findings support further investigations to define the clinical utility and predictive value of digital pulse amplitude.
