Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Using 930 individuals connected in a single pedigree from an isolated population, participants of the Erasmus Rucphen Family (ERF) study, we investigated the heritability of carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (PWV), carotid intima media thickness (IMT), and carotid plaque score. METHODS: PWV was measured between the carotid and femoral arteries as an indicator of aortic stiffness. Common...
