“…18,19 Studies from India have identified SCA in a similar proportion (14%) of patients with rheumatoid arthritis. 15 Indians per se are at a greater risk of cardiovascular disease which also has a younger age of onset than their Western counterparts. 20 The higher burden of SCA in Indian patients with SpA is a matter of concern, particularly because cardiovascular risk factor management is often sidelined in busy outpatient clinics.…”

“…Carotid plaques were identified using standard definitions. 15 SCA was defined as CIMT more than the 75th percentile of CIMT for that age and sex in the Indian population 16 or the presence of carotid plaques. The risk of developing a heart attack or stroke over the next 10 years was calculated using QRISK3.…”

“…Thickening of CIMT is often considered as a subclinical manifestation of atherosclerosis 30 and is strongly associated with cardiovascular morbidity 31,32 . In studies of patients with T2DM, CIMT increases by 0.034 mm per year 33 , and each 0.1 mm thickening of CIMT increases the risk of myocardial infarction by 10% 34 .…”
