TL;DR: The Ndlovu Cohort Study aims to provide insight into the burden of cardiovascular risk factors and disease, the mechanisms driving CVD risk and the contribution of HIV infection and its treatment to the development of CVD in a rural area of SSA.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mean common or mean maximum carotid intima-media thickness as primary outcome in lipid-modifying intervention studies.
TL;DR: The mean maximum CIMT as the primary outcome may be preferred in trials on the impact of lipid-modifying interventions, but with treatment effects that differ across carotid segments that can not be predicted.
Journal ArticleDOI

Journal ArticleDOI
