| Abstract | Background Arterial stiffness as measured by carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (PWV) has been shown to predict cardiovascular events [1]. However, PWV is blood pressure (BP) dependent [2,3] leading to the development of cardio-ankle vascular index (CAVI) as a more blood pressure-independent index [4] that also shows predictive ability in Asian populations [5]. Recently, CAVI was further refined into CAVI0 [6], removing residual acute blood pressure dependence [7]. The present study aims to assess risk prediction by CAVI and CAVI0 in a US population. Methods We enrolled 156 subjects (94.8% male; 47.7% African-American) with and without heart failure. Subjects underwent arterial stiffness assessments (VaSera 1500 N, Fukuda Denshi Co., Tokyo, Japan). Left (L-CAVI) and right (R-CAVI) measurements were obtained from the device, CAVI0’s were converted from CAVI’s taking into account CAVI’s scale coefficients [8,9]. We prospectively followed participants for a mean of 2.56 years for the composite endpoint of death or heart failure related hospital admission. Results L-CAVI and R-CAVI did not differ significantly (9.80 ± 2.11 vs 9.66 ± 1.92, p = 0.146); neither did L-CAVI0 and R-CAVI0 (16.51 ± 5.85 vs 16.15 ± 5.34, p = 0.178). In unadjusted Cox regression, R-CAVI, L-CAVI, and R-CAVI0 but not L-CAVI0 predicted outcome (Table 1). After adjustment for age, sex, race, and systolic BP, only right-sided CAVIs and CAVI0s were predictive. Discussion We observed possible body-side differences in prediction using CAVI and CAVI0. A previous study cross-sectionally reported more pronounced body side differences in heart-to-ankle PWV related to cardiovascular disease [10]; we are unaware of published prospective studies observing this. In conclusion, both R-CAVI and R-CAVI0 predicted heart-failure related end-points. n Standardized HR [95% CI] p Unadjusted L-CAVI 155 1.33 [1.01–1.76] 0.042 R-CAVI 156 1.52 [1.10–2.11] 0.011 L-CAVI0 155 1.28 [0.97–1.68] 0.078 R-CAVI0 156 1.39 [1.04–1.87] 0.027 Adjusted for age, sex, race, and systolic BP L-CAVI 154 1.35 [0.99–1.83] 0.06 R-CAVI 155 1.55 [1.08–2.21] 0.016 L-CAVI0 154 1.30 [0.95–1.77] 0.10 R-CAVI0 155 1.39 [1.0´–1.9´] 0.044 s-HR, standardized hazard ratio; CI, confidence interval.

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
