  1. Data are mean ± standard deviation; BP blood pressure, SBP systolic blood pressure, DBP diastolic blood pressure, PP pulse pressure, MAP mean arterial pressure
  2. aInvasive BP amplification was defined as invasive brachial BP minus invasive aortic BP;
  3. bIndividual cuff SBP was added by each corresponding SBP amplification;
  4. cCuff BP differences were defined as cuff minus invasive brachial BP
