Multiple regression models in male and female participants in the study, considering Elv as dependent variable and adjusted for age, BMI, BP-lowering therapy, BP.

	Male				Female
	Standardized coefficient	R2	p value	Standardized coefficient	R2	p value
Ea	0.897	0.540	<0.001	0.883	0.392	<0.001
AIx	0.275	0.043	0.040	0.052	0.002	0.767
DC	−0.062	0.003	0.645	−0.185	0.027	0.276

Elv: ventricular elastance; BP: blood pressure; Ea: arterial elastance; AIx: augmentation index; DC: carotid distensibility coefficient.
