This study was performed to investigate and compare the association of albuminuria with the brachial–ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) and carotid–femoral pulse wave velocity (cfPWV) in a community-based population in Beijing. Subjects were enrolled from a follow-up survey conducted in 2018 from an...
