Orthostatic blood pressure was measured in the supine position and 3\u00a0min after standing. Arterial stiffness was assessed using oscillometric pulse wave velocity (PWV) and related parameters with the Mobil-O-Graph device. Clinical, laboratory, and medication data were analyzed. Logistic regression analyses were performed to identify factors associated with OH.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>OH was present in 56 patients (29%). Patients with OH had significantly higher central blood pressure and arterial stiffness parameters, including PWV, augmentation pressure, and augmentation index. In multivariate analysis, female sex, older age, diabetic neuropathy, and PWV were independently associated with OH. PWV remained significantly associated with OH after adjustment for confounders. No significant differences were observed between groups regarding antihypertensive medication classes.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>In patients with DM, OH is independently associated with increased arterial stiffness and diabetic neuropathy. These findings suggest a link between orthostatic blood pressure dysregulation and adverse vascular characteristics.
