Abstract

Endothelial dysfunction assessed by impaired brachial flow-mediated dilation (FMD) is a predictive factor of incident CVD. Most studies included small proportions of Hispanics or Latinos. We aimed to assess determinants of impaired FMD in a large population-based sample of asymptomatic Mexican-Americans.
