Journal ArticleDOI
Calcium Antagonist Lacidipine Slows Down Progression of Asymptomatic Carotid Atherosclerosis Principal Results of the European Lacidipine Study on Atherosclerosis (ELSA), a Randomized, Double-Blind, Long-Term Trial
Alberto Zanchetti,M. Gene Bond,M. Hennig,Albrecht Neiss,Giuseppe Mancia,Cesare Dal Palù,Lennart Hansson,Bruno Magnani,Karl Heinz Rahn,John L. Reid,Jose L. Rodicio,Michel E. Safar,Lothar Eckes,Paolo Rizzini +13 more
TL;DR: The greater efficacy of lacidipine on carotid IMT progression and number of plaques per patient, despite a smaller ambulatory blood pressure reduction, indicates an antiatherosclerotic action of lacIDipine independent of its antihypertensive action.
Journal ArticleDOI
Risk factors associated with alterations in carotid-intima-media thickness in hypertension: baseline data from the European lacidipine study on atherosclerosis
Alberto Zanchetti,Bond Mg,M. Hennig,Neiss A,Giuseppe Mancia,Dal Palù C,L. Hansson,Bruno Magnani,Karl Heinz Rahn,JL Reid,Jose L. Rodicio,M. E. Safar,Lothar Eckes,Ravinetto R +13 more
TL;DR: Analysis of baseline data from the ELSA has shown that there is an extremely marked prevalence of carotid artery wall alterations among mild-to-moderate, middle-aged hypertensive patients, and significant correlations between ultrasound measurements and the following demographic and clinical variables.
Journal ArticleDOI
Relation between blood pressure variability and carotid artery damage in hypertension: baseline data from the European Lacidipine Study on Atherosclerosis (ELSA).
Giuseppe Mancia,Gianfranco Parati,M. Hennig,Birgit Flatau,Stefano Omboni,Fabio Glavina,Bruno Costa,Renate Scherz,Gene Bond,Alberto Zanchetti +9 more
TL;DR: This is the first demonstration from a large database that not only average 24 h PP and SBP values, but also 24 h BP fluctuations, are associated with, and possibly determinants of, the alterations of large artery structure in hypertension.
Journal ArticleDOI
Baseline reproducibility of B-mode ultrasonic measurement of carotid artery intima-media thickness: the European Lacidipine Study on Atherosclerosis (ELSA).
Rong Tang,M. Hennig,Barbara Thomasson,Renate Scherz,Raffaella Ravinetto,R. Catalini,Paolo Rubba,Alberto Zanchetti,M.G. Bond +8 more
TL;DR: The results demonstrate that by implementing standardized protocols and strict quality control procedures, highly reliable ultrasonic measurements of carotid artery IMT can be achieved in large multi-national trials.
Journal ArticleDOI
Baseline values but not treatment-induced changes in carotid intima-media thickness predict incident cardiovascular events in treated hypertensive patients: findings in the European Lacidipine Study on Atherosclerosis (ELSA).
Alberto Zanchetti,M. Hennig,Regina Hollweck,Gene Bond,Rong Tang,Cesare Cuspidi,Gianfranco Parati,Rita Facchetti,Giuseppe Mancia +8 more
TL;DR: ELSA shows that carotid intima-media thickening and plaques are important added risks of cardiovascular outcomes in a treated hypertensive population independently of blood pressure and traditional risk factors, but the analysis failed to show a predictive role of treatment-dependent IMT changes.
