11 , 13 Curiously, women had smaller baseline brachial artery diameters, in line with previous research, 14 but showed a trend for lower baseline brachial PWV compared with men, pinpointing the influence of other physiologic regulation vectors as relevant modulators for propagation of the pulse wave, from which the elastic modulus may play a quite important role. 11 Similar results were previously reported 15 comparing the brachial PWV response with different durations of ischemia, demonstrating greater reductions in PWV to increasing ischemia durations, peaking at 5 minutes of RH.
