Brief Summary: Role of vitamin D in cardiovascular disease is controversial Here the investigators aimed to investigate the association of vitamin D deficiency and carotid plaque morphology as well as outcome of participants with high-grade carotid artery stenosis undergoing carotid endarterectomy

332 consecutive participants undergoing carotid endarterectomy for symptomatic or asymptomatic carotid artery stenosis were prospectively included in the study and vitamin D levels were determined prior to surgery using chemiluminescence-immunoassay
Detailed Description: Role of vitamin D in cardiovascular disease is controversial Here the investigators aimed to investigate the association of vitamin D deficiency and carotid plaque morphology as well as outcome of participants with high-grade carotid artery stenosis undergoing carotid endarterectomy

332 consecutive participants undergoing carotid endarterectomy for symptomatic or asymptomatic carotid artery stenosis were prospectively included in the study and vitamin D levels were determined prior to surgery using chemiluminescence-immunoassay

There is insufficient data on cardiovascular outcome in participants with CAS and vitamin D deficiency Vitamin D would be an easily modifiable factor

Primary goal was to investigate the influence of vitamin D levels on plaque vulnerability major adverse cardiovascular events MACE and all-cause mortality in patients with carotid artery disease undergoing carotid endarterectomy
