The data were obtained from a simple random sample, including 301 individuals, over 12 census sectors. 95 individuals of both sexes were initially assessed, from November 2016 to February 2018. Home visits were carried out to fi ll out individual and home records and to schedule examinations, including PWV measurement, in an outpatient clinic. <br></p>
