Journal ArticleDOI
Prediction of Clinical Cardiovascular Events With Carotid Intima-Media Thickness A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
TL;DR: The relationship between IMT and risk was nonlinear, but the linear models fitted relatively well for moderate to high IMT values, and is a strong predictor of future vascular events.
Journal ArticleDOI
Common Carotid Intima-Media Thickness Measurements in Cardiovascular Risk Prediction A Meta-analysis

TL;DR: The addition of common CIMT measurements to the Framingham Risk Score was associated with small improvement in 10-year risk prediction of first-time myocardial infarction or stroke, but this improvement is unlikely to be of clinical importance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Carotid Intima-Media Thickening Indicates a Higher Vascular Risk Across a Wide Age Range Prospective Data From the Carotid Atherosclerosis Progression Study (CAPS)
TL;DR: Its predictive value is at least as high in younger subjects as in older subjects, and even after adjustment for age, sex, and vascular risk factors, the predictive value of CCA-IMT and bifurcation IMT remained significant for MI and the combined end point.
Journal ArticleDOI
Carotid intima-media thickness progression to predict cardiovascular events in the general population (the PROG-IMT collaborative project): a meta-analysis of individual participant data.

TL;DR: The association between cIMT progression assessed from two ultrasound scans and cardiovascular risk in the general population remains unproven and no conclusion can be derived for the use of c IMT progression as a surrogate in clinical trials.
Journal ArticleDOI
Randomized Trial of Surgery Versus Surgery Followed by Adjuvant Hepatic Arterial Infusion With 5-Fluorouracil and Folinic Acid for Liver Metastases of Colorectal Cancer

TL;DR: According to this planned interim analysis, adjuvant HAI, when used in this dose and schedule in patients with resection of colorectal liver metastases, reduced the risk of death at best by 15%, but at worst therisk of death was doubled.
