Greater intima-media thickness is associated with higher age, body mass index, blood pressure and reduced baroreflex sensitivity.
Original language description
We examined 27 treated hypertensives and 23 normotensives, age difference was insignificant. The study brought evidence that age and BMI play an additive role in the growth of carotid intima-media (IMT)in healthy subjects. On the other hand, in hypertensives, high blood pressure renders the effect of age and BMI on IMT negligible and the influence of blood pressure on IMT. Baroreflex sensitivity is low in hypertonics and its age-related decrease is weakened in this group.
