Association of central pulse pressure with contrast-induced nephropathy and clinical outcomes in patients undergoing coronary intervention

Conclusion:Elevated baseline central PP was associated with an increased risk of CIN and future cardiovascular events in patients with PCI. Further clinical study may be indicated to determine whether pharmacological modulation on baseline central PP could prevent CIN and future MACE after PCI.
