Abstract

Blood proteomic profiling may model vascular biological aging with high precision. This study aimed to assess the association between blood pressure and proteomic vascular aging, and its potential mediation effects in the relationship between high blood pressure and incident cardiovascular events.

Research summary

The study investigates the association between blood pressure and proteomic vascular aging, suggesting a potential mediation effect on cardiovascular events. This research is relevant as it explores biological aging mechanisms and their relationship with cardiovascular health, which are critical for understanding and potentially mitigating age-related diseases.
