Studies investigating the association between depression and aortic stiffness in older patients with type 2 diabetes are lacking. We postulated an association between depressive symptoms and aortic stiffness, and this relationship may be mediated by increased adiposity. We analyzed participants with type 2 diabetes aged 55 years or older (n = 958). We measured aortic stiffness using carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cut-off ≥ 12 m/s) using the tonometry method. We defined depressive symptoms as a score of greater than 5 on the
