: Hirofumi Tomiyama received funds from Omron Health Care, Asahi Calpis Wellness, and Teijin Pharma. The sponsor (Omron Health Care) assisted in the data formatting (i.e., the brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity data stored in the hard disc of the equipment used to measure the brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity were transferred to an Excel sheet). However, the company played no other role in the design or conduct of the study, that is, in the data collection, management, analysis or interpretation of the data, or the preparation, review, or approval of the manuscript. The remaining authors have no disclosures to make.
