Normal vascular aging: differential effects on wave reflection and aortic pulse wave velocity: the Anglo-Cardiff Collaborative Trial (ACCT). (2005, background): “In contrast, central PP increased linearly with age, which might have important clinical implications, because recent data suggest that central PP might provide a better marker of cardiovascular risk than peripheral values do ( 20 ).”
