Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Parental stroke is a risk factor for stroke among the offspring. Carotid artery intima-media thickness (IMT) is a widely regarded surrogate marker for atherosclerosis and a predictive marker for stroke. This study examines whether parental stroke is associated with IMT progression. METHODS: This longitudinal study had two measures of IMT that were taken upon enrollment of the 521 subjects...
