Aortic pulse wave velocity is greater in peritoneal dialysis patients with lower dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) femoral neck bone mineral density

Background Increased vascular stiffness is associated with low bone mineral density (BMD) in the general population, and both are risk factors for mortality. We wished to determine whether vascular stiffness is associated with BMD in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients. Methods We measured vascular st...
