Carotid energy pulsatility index provides complementary hemodynamic information to renal function in a community-based cohort

Abstract Conventional hemodynamic, including Carotid–femoral pulse wave velocity (cfPWV), characteristic impedance (Zc), and brachial pulse pressure, do not directly quantify pulsatile energy transmission through the arterial system. Carotid energy pulsatility index (PI), derived...
