Common Carotid Artery Intima-media Thickness is not Increased but Distensibility is Reduced in Normotensive Patients with Type 2 Diabetes compared with Control Subjects

Original language description

This study evaluated carotid artery parameters in normotensive patients with type 2 diabetes compared with nondiabetic control subjects. Using a high-resolution B-mode ultrasound scanner, common carotid artery intima-media thickness (IMT) and carotid tree atheroma thickness were measured in 82 patients with type 2 diabetes and 41 controls. The distensibility of the common carotid artery was calculated using the Reneman equation. Distensibility was significantly decreased and atheroma thickness was significantly increased in the diabetes group. There was no significant difference in IMT between the two groups. Stepwise linear regression analysis revealed an association between common carotid artery distensibility and post-ischaemic dilatation of the brachial artery (a measure of endothelial function), body mass index and diabetes duration in patients with type 2 diabetes.
