background: common carotid arterial stiffness can be assessed during carotid arterial ultrasonography, but its association with brachial stiffness, a well-defined cardiovascular risk factor, has not been clarified. the aim of this study was to examine the relationship between common carotid artery and brachial artery stiffness. methods: the static pressure-strain elastic modulus of the common c...
Background: A correlation between coronary artery disease (CAD) and atherosclerosis of peripheral arteries and the determination of noninvasive indexes for its existence and extent have been sought by many researchers. Some studies report that the intima-media thickness (IMT) of peripheral arteries could play this role. This study evaluated the correlation between the IMTs of common carotid and...
abstract introduction: anxiety is associated with a higher risk of cardiovascular disease. the present study aims to assess the extent of carotid artery atherosclerosis in patients with and without anxiety disorder. methods: in a cross-sectional study, two groups of participants with and without anxiety disorder (40 and 80 subjects, respectively) according to dsm-iv were selected from the psych...
Background: The aim of this study was to assess the association of serum adiponectin and a set of traditional cardiovascular risk factors with carotid artery intimal-medial thickness (CIMT) and coronary artery calcium score (CACS), as markers of subclinical atherosclerosis in subjects with early type 2 diabetes mellitus. Methods: Carotid artery intima- media thickness (measured by B-mode ultrso...
Introduction: Doppler ultrasonography (DUS) is the most preferable method for screening of carotid artery disease in patients undergoing CABG. The purpose of this study was to investigate the frequency of carotid artery disease and determine the relation between known risk factors of atherosclerosis and rate of carotid artery narrowing in order to identify high-risk groups among patients schedu...
Background: In many studies, Serum lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] levels considered as an independent risk factor for atherosclerosis. The aim of this study was to assess the association between Lp(a) and cervical carotid artery stenosis in one sample the Iranian population. Methods: As a cross sectional study, between June 2004 and January 2005, at Tehran Heart Center, 1189 candidates for any kind of...
Evaluation of elastic properties of major arteries is subject of great interest with respect to the development of vascular diseases. In this study changes in diameter and cross-sectional area, stress-strain elastic modulus and stiffness of the common carotid arteries in healthy and atherosclerotic women and men were evaluated by using indirect end pressure changes. Variations in diameter and c...
Background and Purpose: Childhood overweight and obesity can be an underlying cause of atherosclerosis. An early stage of atherosclerosis is shown by intimal thickening. The purpose of this study is to evaluate intima-media thickness (IMT) of carotid arteries on 12 to18 years’ old obese children in comparison to control group. Materials and Methods: In a case-control study, height, weight,...
normal 0 false false false en-us x-none ar-sa microsoftinternetexplorer4 background: epidemic levels of obesity and overweight in today's world are leading to a higher number of mortality and morbidity, especially due to cardiovascular diseases (cvds). body fat distribution contributes a great amount to atherosclerosis formation and therefore increased cvd incidence. the present study used the ...
Background and Objective: Osteoarthritis is the most common form of arthritis and joint disease and a major cause of disability among middle-aged and elderly people. The process of the progressive destruction of articular cartilage, causes pain and dysfunction of the joints involved. However, the main cause of this disease is not known. In several epidemiological studies from other countries, t...
