Results of the pooled analysis of the association between arterial stiffness and white matter hyperintensities (panel A), cerebral microbleeds (panel B) and cerebral infarcts (panel C). Odds ratios are expressed per +1SD of each stiffness index.

AAll included studies had adjusted the results for age and mean or systolic blood pressure, with the exception of Brisset, 2013; Ochi, 2010; and Saji, 2011 / 2012, which had not adjusted for mean or systolic blood pressure. SD = standard deviation; carotid = local carotid stiffness; cfPWV = carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity; baPWV = brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity
