Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: In contrast to the commonly used quantitative marker of subclinical atherosclerosis, namely intima-media thickness, we investigated the extent to which the presence or absence of carotid artery plaque (CAP) was under genetic control. METHODS: The study population consisted of 750 individuals distributed across 29 randomly ascertained extended Mexican American pedigrees who participated in...
