  1. Note: Characteristics are reported as percentages for categorical variables and means (±SD) or median (with interquartile range) for continuous variables. The study participants were divided into two groups based on the level of cf-PWV (≥12, <12). Categorical variablesare presented as counts and percentages. The values outside the parentheses are the number of subjects, and the values inside the parentheses are prevalence
