Brief Summary:
Carotid ultrasonography has been proposed as a tool for prediction of future cardiovascular disease (CVD). Nevertheless, its role in clinical practice remains controversial.
Methods: The investigators analyse the incidence of CVD and mortality in a cohort of 1004 participants without preexisting CVD according to a simple plaque scale recorded in different segments of the carotid artery assess by ultrasound. A prognostic tool for CV events was development adding Carotid Plaque-Burden (CPB) scale to the Systematic COronary Risk Evaluation (SCORE2) table (CPB- SCORE2 scale).
Detailed Description:
Based in number of plaques and stenosis a simple plaque scale was recorded in different segments of carotid artery, involving a cohort of 1004 participants with vascular risk factors. Outcomes were recorded during 14 years. A prognostic tool for CV events was development adding simple Carotid Plaque-Burden (CPB) scale to the SCORE2 table (CPB- SCORE2 scale).
