Age and sex differences in the relationship between inherited and lifestyle risk factors and subclinical carotid atherosclerosis: the Tromsø study.

Atherosclerosis - 1 Feb 2001

Stensland-Bugge E, Bønaa K H, Joakimsen O

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Ultrasound measurement of carotid artery intima-media thickness (IMT) is regarded as a valid index of atherosclerosis. Age and sex differences in the distribution of, and risk factors for, IMT have not been investigated thoroughly. METHODS: In 1994-1995 a total of 6408 men and women aged 25-84 years living in the municipality of Tromsø, Norway, underwent ultrasound examination of carotid artery IMT...
