Methods: Carotid and femoral pressure and central flow waveforms were noninvasively acquired in a total of 873 community residents (aged ≥50 years, mean age 66.9 years, 69.2% female). They were classified as EVA and HVA, according to the highest and lowest 10% of the cfPWV stratified by 5-year intervals. The remaining 80% were defined as average vascular aging (AVA). Macrovascular and microvascular functions were characterized by aortic input impedance, systemic vascular resistance and wave reflection indices.
