s 73 conventional risk factors and baseline renal function). These associations remained unchanged after further adjustments for central artery stiffness or traditional central haemodynamic parameters. No other RPA-parameters exhibited significant associations. Conclusions: These findings demonstrate that baseline INTPR is independently associated with the eGFR reduction in older adults, suggesting that INTPR may play a role in the functional decline of the kidneys.
