Associations of retinal microvascular caliber with large arterial function and structure: A population ‐based study of 11‐12 year‐olds and mid‐life adults
ConclusionsNarrower retinal arterioles and wider venules are associated with large arterial function as early as mid ‐childhood. Associations strengthen by mid‐life and also extend to arterial structure, although effect sizes remain small.
