Heritability of carotid artery atherosclerotic lesions: an ultrasound study in 154 families.

Stroke - 1 Jan 2005

Moskau Susanna, Golla Astrid, Grothe Christoph, Boes Monika, Pohl Christoph, Klockgether Thomas

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Ultrasound examination of the carotid arteries yields several quantitative measures that may serve as intermediate phenotypes in genetic studies. This study was undertaken to compare the heritabilities of 3 ultrasound measures: intima-media thickness (IMT), plaque score, a...
