摘要

Background: Carotid artery intima media thickness (CIMT) represents a marker for sub-clinical atherosclerosis. Objective: To explore the possible effects of age, sex, body mass index (BMI) and smoking on IMT of the carotid artery in normal Egyptian subjects. Methods: A total of 101 normal healthy Egyptian subjects underwent duplex ultrasonography of the carotid artery for assessment of intima media thickness. All subjects underwent measurement of BMI, smoking status, serum cholesterol, triglycerides. Results: A statistically high significant difference was observed between age groups as regards right, left and average CIMT. A highly significant positive correlation was detected between mean age and Right, Left, and average CIMT. A statistically highly significant difference was observed between female and male participants as regards mean Right, Left, and average carotid IMT, being significantly thinner in females. A statistically significant difference was found between non-smoker group and both ex-smoker and smoker groups as regards the mean Left CIMT. A statistically high significant positive correlation was found between duration of smoking and Right, Left and average CIMT. No significant differences were detected between subjects of different BMI groups as regards CIMT. Age and interaction of age with smoking were found to be the only independent factors affecting the CIMT in both males and females. Conclusion: In normal Egyptian subjects, age is a significant predictor for increased CIMT in both males and females. Smoking duration is a significant predictor for increased CIMT in males. Age, smoking and interaction of age with smoking were found to be the only independent factors for increased CIMT. [Egypt J Neurol Psychiat Neurosurg.  2011; 48(2): 191-198]
