Abstract
Circulating levels of hs-cTnI increase with increasing brachial and central BP, but the effect of central BP was greater in subjects with higher rAI. This indicates that central BP may have a strong effect on silent myocardial damage, assessed as increased circulating hs-cTnI, particularly in subjects with increased arterial stiffness.
