Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to evaluate carotid intima-media thickness (cIMT) in children with a positive family history of premature cardiovascular disease (PFHPCD) and the relationship between cIMT and other known risk factors (insulin resistance, oxidant status and lipid profile) involved in structural vascular changes. METHODS: Anthropometric measurements and inflammatory markers [isoprostanes...
