The 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase inhibitors have proven to be more effective in reducing levels of low density lipoprotein (LD...
In our previous paper, we reported the development of a blood collection and processing system (BCPS) suitable for the ARIC multicenter hemostasis study. As an additional step of preparation for the ARIC study, we incorporated this BCPS ...
Using B-mode ultrasonography, cigarette smoking was found to be a strong, independent risk factor for extracranial carotid atherosclerosis in 1692 black an...
鈥擯revious reports have investigated associations between carotid intima-media thickness (IMT) and cardiovascular risk factors. Our objective was to inves...
Aging of the common carotid artery (CCA) is associated with different principal structural, functional, and hemodynamic changes, which are often influenced...
The authors investigated the relation between coronary atherosclerosis, angiographically detected, and intimal-medial (I-M) thickening of the common caroti...
Several population studies have shown that plasma levels of fibrinogen and factor VII are significantly associated with ischemic cardiovascular events. How...
