Carotid intima-media Thickness and Cardiovascular Risk

Future Cardiology, 2011
Cardiovascular disease is the primary cause of death in most developed nations. Identifying an individual's cardiovascular risk remains a challenge. Traditional coronary-risk stratification is based on cardiovascular risk factors using risk score systems, which may not reliably identify atherosclerosis in asymptomatic individuals.

Carotid intima–media thickness

Journal of Cardiovascular Medicine, 2006
In advanced countries the incidence of cardiovascular diseases is constantly increasing. During the last century many resources were employed to investigate atherosclerosis in relation to the main risk factors and to modification of lifestyles. Technologies have been developed to identify atherosclerosis in the sub-clinical phase.

Carotid Intima-media Thickness

American Journal of Therapeutics, 2014
Evidence-based medicine requires us to use pharmacological agents that have been tested and that have been showed to reduce the disease in that particular group of affected patients. The choice of the efficacy endpoint is one of the most controversial issues in designing the trials.

Carotid Intima Media Thickness and Beyond

Current Drug Target -Cardiovascular & Hematological Disorders, 2004
Atherosclerosis evolves from the vascular wall. The initial build-up starts at the inner layers of the intima media complex of the artery. To track these phases of the beginning of disease requires a technique that can reliably detect and follow the extent and severity non-invasively over time.

Reproductive history and carotid intima‐media thickness

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, 2007
AbstractBackground. Intima‐media thickness (IMT) of the carotid arteries is a valid measure of preclinical atherosclerosis which may predict cardiovascular outcomes. Metabolic and hormonal changes associated with the reproductive history of women may contribute to the development of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Methods.

Intima-Media Thickness of Carotid Arteries

2014
Carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) is a validated predictive marker of increased plaque occurrence and the incidence of major cardiovascular events. However, due to technical issues associated with the measurement of CIMT, a well-trained and certified sonographer is needed to overcome causes of variability due to the patient, device, sonographer ...

Carotid intima‐media thickness in Parkinson's disease

Movement Disorders, 2007
AbstractThere have been a few studies and inconsistent results regarding the coincidence of Parkinson's disease (PD) and atherosclerotic diseases, such as cerebrovascular disease. Carotid intima‐media thickness (IMT) is a known marker for subclinical atherosclerosis.

Carotid intima-media thickness for the practicing lipidologist

Journal of Clinical Lipidology, 2010
It is well known that cardiovascular disease is the number one killer of men and women in the United States and in many parts of the developed world. However, early detection of atherosclerosis remains a challenging area of research and development. Stress echo and myocardial perfusion studies were not designed to be screening tests and the majority of
