Cardio-vascular risk factors were assessed by history, blood samples, and clinical examination. CIMT, plaques, and PSV were determined by carotid ultrasound. Serum N-terminal brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) was determined as a biomarker for cardiac dysfunction, and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was quantified by echocardiography. Participants with carotid stenosis were excluded. Data were analyzed by multivariate linear regression.RESULTS: We included 8567 participants, median age was 62 years, 51.8% were women. Median CIMT was 0.75 mm, NT-proBNP 80 pg/ml, LVEF 58.5%, and 30.4% had carotid plaques. For women PSV decreased in decades from 89 to 73 cm/s in CCAs and 78 to 66 cm/s in ICAs, and for men from 91 to 76 cm/s in CCAs and from 70 to 66 cm/s in ICAs. Corrected for age, sex, red blood cell count, and blood pressure, in CCAs lower PSV was associated with carotid plaques (p < 0.001; β = -0.03), lower CIMT (p = 0.005; β = 0.007), higher levels of log-transformed NT-proBNP (p < 0.001; β = -0.01), and lower LVEF (p < 0.001; β = 0.01).
