Arterial Stiffness and Hypertension: Chicken or Egg?
Open accessAbstract
Hypertension is highly prevalent in the United States and worldwide. In the United States, 1 in 3 adults (≈73 million people) have hypertension. The financial and human costs of hypertension are substantial. The estimated costs attributable to hypertension in the United States alone in 2010 were $70 billion direct costs for medical treatments and $24 billion indirect costs because of lost productivity.1 Awareness and treatment of hypertension have improved considerably during the past several decades: >80% of all people with hypertension are aware of the condition and 75% are using antihypertensive medications.2,3 However, despite enormous effort and treatment-related expenditures, only 53% of those with documented hypertension have their blood pressure controlled.3 Older age (Figure 1), left ventricular hypertrophy, and obesity are important risk factors for uncontrolled or drug-resistant hypertension.4 Importantly, the foregoing are also risk factors for increased aortic stiffness.5 Figure 1. Hypertension prevalence and control rates as a function of age in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2003 to 2004. Data derived from Wong et al.44 During the past 2 decades, measures of aortic stiffness have emerged as important risk factors for progression of blood pressure and incident cardiovascular disease. Carotid femoral pulse wave velocity (CFPWV), a measure of aortic wall stiffness, increases markedly with age, particularly after midlife. For example, Framingham Heart Study investigators have shown that the prevalence of CFPWV ≥12 m/s increases from a few percentage before 50 years of age to ≥60% after 70 years of age (Figure 2A). Importantly, elevated CFPWV is associated with high risk for incident hypertension (Figure 2B) and cardiovascular disease (Figure 2C). Figure 2C should be interpreted within the context that a normal value (<95th percentile) for CFPWV in a healthy Framingham Heart Study reference sample <50 years of age was 8.1 …

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
