Carotid intima thickness assessed using high-resolution ultrasound as a structural correlate of endothelial dysfunction

Purpose: This study evaluated the association between carotid intima thickness (cIT), measured using high-resolution ultrasound, and endothelial cell dysfunction (ECD), assessed using flow-mediated dilation (FMD), for early atherosclerosis risk assessment.Methods: Between January...
