Delta cfPWV Among Patients Who Developed vs Patients Who Did Not Develop CV Events During the 12‐Month Follow‐Up Period
| Clinical Event | Delta cfPWV, Median (IQR), m/s N=66 | P Value | |
|---|---|---|---|
| No Event | Event | ||
| New CV eventa | 0.96 (−0.36 to 2.31) (n=53) | 2.47 (0.96–6.00) (n=13) | .09 |
| CV death | 1.07 (−0.25 to 2.60) (n=59) | 2.47 (−1.47 to 15.06) (n=7) | .20 |
| ACS | 1.01 (−0.37 to 2.60) (n=62) | 2.06 (1.29–9.77) (n=4) | .37 |
| Acute ischemic PAD | 1.10 (−0.37 to 2.60) (n=62) | 2.62 (0.46–5.26) (n=4) | .49 |
Abbreviations: cfPWV, carotid‐femoral pulse wave velocity; IQR, interquartile range; PAD, peripheral arterial disease. aNew cardiovascular (CV) event was defined as the composite of either CV death, acute coronary syndrome (ACS), significant acute ischemic peripheral arterial events necessitating intervention, or stroke. There were no stroke events in the cohort during the 12‐month follow‐up period.
