 Age (y) 58 ± 9 56 ± 7
 Men 32% 29%
 ABI 1.13 ± 0.10 1.14 ± 0.13
Framingham risk intermediate (≥10% and <20% over 10 y) n = 574 n = 891
 Common CIMT (mm)* 0.777 ± 0.216 0.668 ± 0.471
 Age (y) 63 ± 7 61 ± 7
 Men 73% 67%
 ABI 1.13 ± 0.13 1.15 ± 0.14
Framingham risk high (≥20% over 10 y) n = 194 n = 355
 Common CIMT (mm)* 0.833 ± 0.226 0.767 ± 0.142
 Age (y) 68 ± 5 65 ± 6
 Men 93% 90%
