4 Risk Factors Correlated With Carotid Atherosclerosis Cholesterol Triglycerides High-density lipoprotein (inverse relationship) Left ventricular mass Electrocardiographic abnormalities Glucose, glucose intolerance Insulin levels Diabetes (especially type 2) Postmenopausal status High-sensitivity C-reactive protein (women) Fibrinogen (men) Advancing age Male gender Blood pressure (especially systolic) Smoking Body mass index Waist-to-hip ratio Low activity level Race, ethnicity Familial history Genetic factors Alcohol consumption Homocysteine Mancini GBJ et al Circulation 2004;109;22-30
5 Risk Factors Correlated With Progression of Carotid Atherosclerosis Arno Schmidt-Trucksäss Age Smoking CAD Hypertension, Pulse pressure Diabetes, disturbed glucose tolerance LDL-cholesterol Oxidized LDL Triglyceride Lipoprotein (a) Fibrinogene Factor V Leiden Leucocyte count Platelet count and aggregability High sensitive CRP Mancini GBJ et al Circulation 2004;109;22-30

9 Added Value in Risk Stratification on Top of Classical Risk Factors Arno Schmidt-Trucksäss At present it seems that the published evidence to quantitatively support the use of a CIMT measurement to help in risk stratification on top of a risk function is limited.
