Arterial stiffness in adults with steady-state bronchiectasis: association with clinical indices and disease severity

open access: yesRespiratory Research, 2018
Background Cardiovascular disease are common co-morbidities in bronchiectasis and contribute substantially to disease burden and mortality. Brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV), a measure of arterial stiffness, has a strong predictive value for ...
