Pulse wave velocity and pulse wave analysis in Turner syndrome and healthy age-matched controls
Turner Syndrome | Controls | P-value | |
---|---|---|---|
Augmentation index [%]b | 31.4 [27.9–34.9] | 24.4 [20.3–28.5] | 0.02 |
Augmentation index [%] without CoAc | 31.3 [27.5–35.21] | 24.4 [20.3–28.5] | 0.04 |
Pulse wave velocity [m/s]a | 6.76 [6.39–7.16] | 6.9 [6.56–7.32] | 0.6 |
Central systolic blood pressure [mmHg]b | 114.3 ± 13.1 | 111.3 ± 16.4 | 0.4 |
Central diastolic blood pressure [mmHg]b | 78.8 ± 9.92 | 73.7 ± 8.94 | 0.02 |
Central systolic blood pressure, central diastolic blood pressure, and Augmentation index were derived from the pulse wave analysis
