摘要: In order to compare the extent of early carotid atherosclerosis between patients with single vascular risk factors (smoking = SMO or hypertension HYP) and risk-free normal subjects (= HCS), we used intimal-medial wall thickness (IMT) measurements common artery. The age- sex-adjusted mean IMTs were significantly higher in HYP groups than HCS control group (p < 0.005 p 0.001, respectively). estimated yearly progression rate IMT (average difference IMT/year age difference) was 0.05). total group, age, hypertension, smoking sex accounted for 52% variability IMT. Our results show that is slower healthy volunteers previously detected have a similar effect atherosclerosis. This also emphasises influence initial remodelling process.
