Assessment of Carotid Intima-Media Thickness and Infra-Renal Abdominal Aorta Diameter in Women with and Without Gestational Diabetes Mellitus-A case Control Study

Objective: Gestational diabetes mellitus occurs during pregnancy is associated with increased cardiovascular risk. Carotid intima media thickness (CIMT) is a surrogate maker of subclinical atherosclerosis. The aim of this study is assessment of relationship between CIMT and infra-renal abdominal aorta diameter in women with and without Gestational Diabetes Mellitus. Materials and Methods: Th...

Common carotid intima-media thickness in acute ischemic stroke: A case control study.

Stroke is the third leading cause of mortality worldwide. Combined carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) is a marker of atherosclerosis and is also a predictor for ischemic stroke. We determined the frequency of CIMT in patients with acute ischemic stroke and in matched controls and also the risk factors for CIMT. Sixty patients with ischemic stroke diagnosed by computer tomography (CT) scan an...

Snoring and carotid artery intima-media thickness.

OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS A growing body of evidence indicates that primary snoring (PS) may be the initial presentation of sleep-disordered breathing and can adversely affect an individual's health. Individuals with the sole diagnosis of PS were evaluated to determine if a relationship exists between snoring and thickening of the intima media of the carotid arteries. STUDY DESIGN Cross-sectional...
