Background: Arterial stiffness is blood pressure (BP) dependent. Using 24-hour ambulatory BP monitoring (24hABPM) pulse pressure (PP) can be split into an ‘elastic’ part (elPP: ‘diastolic stiffness’), and a ‘stiffening’ part (stPP: ‘stiffness change during systole’). We investigated associations of elPP,...
