Abstract
Objective: Increased resting heart rate as well as increased arterial stiffness are both independent predictors of cardiovascular events and mortality. Results of previous studies have failed to converge concerning the association between heart rate and arterial stiffness, regardless of other potential confounders, such as age, gender and particularly blood pressure (BP). We aimed to investigate: (a) the degree of association (if any) between...
