Cumulative muscle mass and blood pressure but not fat mass drives arterial stiffness and carotid intima-media thickness progression in the young population and is unrelated to vascular organ damage
A. O. Agbaje, A. R. Barker, et al.
This longitudinal study by Andrew O. Agbaje, Alan R. Barker, and Tomi-Pekka Tuomainen explores how fat mass, lean mass, and blood pressure from childhood to young adulthood influence arterial health. Notably, while lean mass and blood pressure correlate positively with carotid artery changes, fat mass shows no link. Discover the critical findings that could reshape our understanding of young adult cardiovascular health!
