Arterial stiffness (AS) has been shown, for the general population, as an independent risk factor for cardiovascular events and mortality. In postmenopausal women, the association of AS with age, cardiovascular disease, and metabolic syndrome (MetS) is not yet well established. Analyse the influence of MetS, age, body mass index (BMI), and menopausal characteristics on the variation of AS in early (EP) and late...
