“…In the Young Finns Study cohort, patients with MetS at baseline had an accelerated C-IMTp during 6-years of follow-up compared with those without [60] (Table 7; supplementary material). Similar findings were reported in middle-aged Japanese women [69], in middle-aged men free of diabetes and CVD [70], in an elderly population [71] and in apparently healthy adults [72] followed for variable periods. In the population-based Tromsø Study, MetS at baseline was associated with C-IMTp during 13-years follow-up in subjects below 50 years of age at baseline [73].…”

“…Furthermore, the connection between early markers of atherosclerosis and metabolic conditions was related to the morpho-structural alteration in vascular beds to the systemic dysfunction of the human metabolism. In particular, Jung et al 35) observed that 370 patients (median age: 66 years), followed-up for at least 25 months and without any evidence of carotid atherosclerotic alterations (i.e., increased intima-media thickness and/or carotid plaque) at the enrolment phase, can early develop atherosclerotic plaques at carotid level in relation to the onset of metabolic syndrome. In particular, C-IMT, i.e., the change over time of the intima-media thickness of the carotid, was associated with metabolic syndrome onset at multivariate regression model.…”

“…20, 21 Matsui et al reported that the maximum home SBP was significantly associated with left ventricular mass index and IMT, and assessment of the maximum home SBP may increase the predictive value of hypertensive target organ damage in the heart and arteries. 22 It has been reported that the metabolic syndrome is associated with progression of early carotid atherosclerosis in the general population 23 and with subclinical atherosclerosis. 24 However, the association between IMT and the HbA1c value or the severity of diabetes mellitus is controversial.…”
