Carotid intima-media thickness in the Spanish population: reference ranges and association with cardiovascular risk factors.
Rev Esp Cardiol (Engl Ed). 2012 Dec;65(12):1086-93, PMID: 23021836
Carotid intima-media thickness as measured with ultrasonography is an inexpensive and noninvasive predictor of cardiovascular events. The objectives of this study were to determine the population reference ranges of carotid intima-media thickness for individuals aged 35-84 years in Spain and to analyze the association of carotid intima-media thickness with cardiovascular risk factors (age, smoking, diabetes, pulse pressure, lipid profile, and body mass index).
