Are adiponectin , systolic blood pressure , and alcohol consumption associated with more aortic stiffness progression among apparently healthy men?
Among apparently healthy men, lower levels of baseline adiponectin could be a novel marker for greater risk of aortic stiffness progression. Longitudinal research is required to evaluate whether adiponectin change over time would have similar association with aortic stiffness progression.
The Omron T9P device is an accurate device for use predominantly in an outpatient antenatal clinical setting. Further studies are required solely within hypertensive pregnant women before its use can be recommended with certainty in this group.
