2007 ESH‐ESC Guidelines for the management of arterial hypertension (2007, background): “(54,55,229,230) Although the relationship between aortic stiffness and events is continuous, a threshold w12 m/s has been suggested as a conservative estimate of significant alterations of aortic function in middle age hypertensives.”
Quarterly Focus Issue: Prevention/OutcomeClinical Research: Cardiovascular RiskPrediction of Cardiovascular Events and All-Cause Mortality With Arterial Stiffness: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis (2010, positive): “To evaluate the shape (e.g., linear) of the association of aortic PWV with the risk of clinical events over the whole range of aortic PWV distribution, we calculated pooled RRs by tertiles of aortic PWV (8,13,19,23,25,28).”
ESH / ESC Guidelines for the management of arterial hypertension (2013, methodology): “The additive value of PWV above and beyond traditional risk factors, including SCORE and Framingham risk score, has been quantified in a number of studies.(51,52,194,195) In addition, a substantial proportion of patients at intermediate risk could be reclassified into a higher or lower CV risk, when”

Expert consensus document on arterial stiffness: methodological issues and clinical applications. (2006, background): “For instance, the predictive value of aortic PWV for primary CHD events in hypertensive patients was more marked for patients considered as at low risk, i.e. belonging to the first and second tertiles of the Framingham risk score, than for patients at high risk (i.e. belonging to the third tertile o”
Expert consensus document on the measurement of aortic stiffness in daily practice using carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity. (2012, methodology): “This value was selected because it corresponded Volume 30 (cid:4) Number 3 (cid:4) March 2012 from longitudinal data available at that time in different populations of hypertensive patients [17 ,18], older adults cross-sectional [7] data supporting this cut-off value.”

(2011, background): “Aortic stiffness increases dramatically with advancing age and is associated with increased risk for major cardiovascular disease events (Laurent et al., 2001, 2003; Meaume et al., 2001; Boutouyrie et al., 2002; Sutton-Tyrrell et al., 2005; MattaceRaso et al., 2006; Willum-Hansen et al., 2006; Mitch”
