Abstract:
Metabolic abnormalities were identified and carotid intima-media-thickness(IMT)was measured in 221 individuals at risk for metabolic syndrome(MS).The results indicated that IMT was significantly thicker in MS individuals than that in non-MS individuals(P<0.01).And there was a tendency of progressive increase in IMT with increasing components of metabolic syndrome.
