Figure 2From: Association between human cartilage glycoprotein 39 (YKL-40) and arterial stiffness in essential hypertension Scatter diagram of YKL-40 and cf-PWV in normoalbuminuric and microalbuminuric hypertensions. Spearman correlation of circulating plasma levels YKL-40 and cf-PWV. The level of YKL positively correlate with cf-PWV in normoalbuminuric and microalbuminuric hypertensions ( r = 0.44, P = 0.00).Back to article page
