Heritability of Arterial Stiffness in Black and White American Youth and Young Adults

1 Oct 2007

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Our objectives were to examine the heritability of arterial stiffness measured as pulse-wave velocity (PWV), and its dependence on ethnicity, gender, and blood pressure (BP). METHODS: As part of the Georgia Cardiovascular Twin Study, we measured aorto-radial (radial) and aorto-dorsalis-pedis (foot) PWV in 702 twins (41% black; 49% male) aged 12 to 30 years (mean age, 17.7 +/- 3.3 years), including...
