Prediction of Clinical Cardiovascular Events With Carotid Intima-Media Thickness: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Explore this paper's citation graph
Summary
The relationship between IMT and risk was nonlinear, but the linear models fitted relatively well for moderate to high IMT values, and is a strong predictor of future vascular events.
