Background: Individuals with diabetes are at higher risk for developing arterial disorders. The toe-brachial index (TBI) is associated with peripheral vascular disease, and aortic pulse-wave velocity (aPWV) is currently the gold standard for assessing arterial stiffness. High concentrations of plasma arginine vasopressin (AVP) preferentially stimulate V1a receptors, which affect the vascular bed and may contribute to cardiovascular (CV) complications. Copeptin, a more stable p...
