We investigated the association of lung function at mid-life, later in life, and its 20-year decline, with arterial stiffness later in life. We examined 5720 Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities Study participants who attended Visits 1 (1987-1989) and 5 (2011-2013). Lung function measures were forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV<sub>1</sub>) and forced vital capacity (FVC), obtained at Visits 1, 2 (1990-1992), and 5. Central artery stiffness (carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity [cfPWV]) w ...[more]
