Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND & AIM: Understanding the lifestyle and genetic factors that affect pulse wave velocity (PWV) may provide clues to preventing atherosclerotic cardiovascular events. The aim of this study is to investigate genome-wide genetic and dietary calcium (Ca) intake interaction effects on brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV). METHODS: The baPWV was measured, and Ca intake was quantified by administering a...
