Longitudinal brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity was analyzed with a linear mixed-effects model using time, lifestyle habits and possible atherosclerotic risk factors at baseline as fixed effects, and patient as a random effect.
BP, blood pressure; eGFR, estimated glomerular filtration rate; HbA1c, hemoglobin A1c; HDL, high-density lipoprotein.
