摘要: Objective To determine cardiovascular disease risk in a larger cohort of patients with glycogen storage (GSD) I through the use noninvasive measures arterial function and anatomy. Study design Carotid intima media thickness (IMT), radial artery tonometry, brachial reactivity were performed 28 GSD (13F/15M, mean age 23 years) control subjects (19F/4M, years). Results The primary outcome measure, left distal IMT was greater (0.500 ± 0.055 mm) than group (0.457 0.039 ( P = .002, adjusted for age, sex, body mass index). Mean augmentation index measured by tonometry higher (16.4% 14.0%) (2.4% 8.7%) .46). Conclusions is associated dysfunction evident increased index. Patients may be at disease.
