- The study examined how intima-media thickness (IMT) in the common carotid arteries differs based on factors like age and pulse pressure among a sample of 433 individuals aged 15-87.
- Results showed a significant link between higher pulse pressure and increased IMT, with measurable differences between various age and group classifications.
- The research concluded that IMT in these arteries is influenced by multiple factors including age, pulse pressure, body weight, and cholesterol levels, highlighting the importance of monitoring these measurements for cardiovascular health.
