Examination | FDR (n=16) | Non-FDR (n=16) | p |
---|---|---|---|
LCCA-IMT (mm), average (SD) | 0.45 (0.08) | 0.38 (0.06) | p=0.015 |
RCCA-IMT (mm), median (min–max) | 0.42 (0.33–0.59) | 0.37 (0.32–0.44) | p=0.015 |
CIMT (mm), average (SD) | 0.44 (0.06) | 0.38 (0.05) | p=0.005 |
Notes: The mean difference was considered statistically significant if p<0.01. Bold value indicates the difference of CIMT between 2 groups is statistically significant.
Abbreviations: LCCA-IMT, left common carotid artery-intima media thickness; RCCA-IMT, right common carotid artery-intima media thickness; CIMT, carotid intima-media thickness (LCCA-IMT+RCCA-IMT/2); FDR, first-degree relative.
