Carotid Intima-Media Thickness in Master Athletes [PDF]

Asian Journal of Sports Medicine, 2015
Carotid Intima Media Thickness (IMT) is currently used to assess the relationship between progression of coronary and systemic atherosclerosis. To date, however, the possible impact of regular physical activity (PA) on this parameter has not been well estimated.Our study aims to examine this aspect especially in the absence of cardiovascular (CV) risk ...

Association between serum Mg2+ concentrations and cardiovascular organ damage in a cohort of adult subjects [PDF]

, 2020
Magnesium (Mg2+) levels are associated with insulin resistance, hypertension, atherosclerosis, and type 2 diabetes (T2DM). We evaluated the clinical utility of physiological Mg2+ in assessing subclinical cardiovascular organ damage including increased ...

Non-HDL Cholesterol Levels in Childhood and Carotid Intima-Media Thickness in Adulthood

Pediatrics, 2020
We examined if childhood non–HDL-C status predicts high common carotid artery IMT in adulthood. BACKGROUND: Elevated non–high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels are used to identify children at increased cardiovascular risk, but the use of ...
