Abstract	Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the most typical cardiac condition. Diabetes mellitus, systemic hypertension, dyslipidemia, hypothyroidism, stress, alcohol use, and smoking are the primary risk factors for coronary artery disease. The narrowing or blockage of your coronary arteries is known as coronary artery disease. Breathlessness, chest pain, or even a heart attack may result from this. A continuously elevated pressure in the arteries is called hypertension, sometimes referred to as high or rising blood pressure. Aortic stiffness (AoS), a measure of blood vessel wall flexibility, significantly influences CAD prognosis and reflects subclinical disease. Echocardiography, with its excellent sensitivity and specificity, is a reliable method for detecting CAD and assessing disease severity. This study aims to assess aortic elasticity index in hypertensive and non-hypertensive patients with CAD.
