- Cf-PWV carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity, S2-TTw PWV estimated with Strategy 2 considering the, wavelets transform transit time, S3 pulse wave velocity estimated with plane fitting. β estimated coefficient, R correlation coefficient. Model A univariate regression of association between pulse wave velocity measures with LV mass-to-volume ratio (LVM/EDV). Model B Model A + adjustment for age, gender (male), body mass index and systolic blood pressure. Levels of significance were indicated by *** for p < 0.001, ** for p < 0.01, * for p < 0.05
