In a cross-sectional study of 8695 men and women free of clinical CVD, aged 45–64 years at
the 1987–1989 baseline Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) study exam, we
examined the relationship between carotid artery lesions (CALs), with and without acoustic
shadowing (AS) as an index of plaque mineralization, to systemic markers of inflammation
and markers of endothelial function, including endothelial adhesion molecules. A three-level
variable, based on the presence of extracranial CALs and AS, identified by B-mode …
