Association between fibrinogen/albumin ratio and arterial stiffness in patients with type 2 diabetes: A cross-sectional study

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2023
Background: Fibrinogen albumin ratio (FAR) is significantly correlated with the severity and prognosis of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Arterial stiffness is an early lesion of CVD, but no studies have examined the correlation between arterial stiffness ...
