Common Carotid Intima-Media Thickness and Risk of Stroke and Myocardial Infarction The Rotterdam Study

TL;DR: Evidence is provided that an increased common carotid IMT is associated with future cerebrovascular and cardiovascular events and Stroke risk increased gradually with increasing IMT.
Journal ArticleDOI

Atherosclerosis, apolipoprotein E, and prevalence of dementia and Alzheimer's disease in the Rotterdam Study.

TL;DR: It is suggested that dementia and its two major subtypes Alzheimer's disease and vascular dementia are associated with atherosclerosis and that there is an interaction between apolipoprotein E and Atherosclerosis in the aetiology of Alzheimer’s disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Christopher Newton-Cheh, +362 more
- 01 Jun 2009 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the association between systolic or diastolic blood pressure and common variants in eight regions near the CYP17A1 (P = 7 × 10(-24)), CYP1A2(P = 1 × 10-23), FGF5 (P=1 × 10 -21), SH2B3(P= 3 × 10−18), MTHFR(MTHFR), c10orf107(P), ZNF652(ZNF652), PLCD3 (P,P = 5 × 10 −9),
Journal ArticleDOI

Predictive value of noninvasive measures of atherosclerosis for incident myocardial infarction - The Rotterdam study

TL;DR: Noninvasive measures of extracoronary atherosclerosis are strong predictors of myocardial infarction, and relatively crude measures directly assessing plaques in the carotid artery and abdominal aorta predict MI equally well as the more precisely measuredCarotid IMT.
Journal ArticleDOI

Carotid artery intima‐media thickness as an indicator of generalized atherosclerosis

TL;DR: The data supporting the use of ultrasonographically measured intima-media thickness of the major arteries, and in particular of the carotid artery, for visualizing and monitoring atherosclerosis are discussed.
