Implication

Autopsy mapping of cerebral atherosclerosis distribution; leaves open links to hypertension, obesity, and infarction.

Key Points

  • To characterize the distribution of internal carotid atherosclerosis in women and assess its relationship with coronary atherosclerosis, age, hypertension, obesity, and cerebral infarction.
  • Evaluated the extent and anatomical distribution of atherosclerosis in the internal carotid arterial system of female subjects.
  • Analyzed associations between cerebral arterial plaque severity, coronary artery atherosclerosis, and clinical risk factors including hypertension and obesity.
  • Characterized the degree of internal carotid system atherosclerosis across different age groups in women.
  • Identified correlations linking cerebral arterial atherosclerosis to coronary artery plaque, hypertension, obesity, and the occurrence of cerebral infarction.

Winter et al. (1958) conducted an observational in Atherosclerosis. Age, coronary atherosclerosis, hypertension, and obesity was evaluated on Distribution of cerebral atherosclerosis and its relation to coronary atherosclerosis. The relationship between cerebral atherosclerosis, coronary atherosclerosis, and other risk factors in women was investigated, but no quantitative results are reported in the abstract.
