Intima–Media Thickness Is Linearly and Continuously Associated With Systolic Blood Pressure in a Population‐Based Cohort (STANISLAS Cohort Study)

BackgroundCarotid intima–media thickness (cIMT) is a noninvasive marker of cardiovascular risk. The cIMT may be increased in patients with harmonisation, but little is known regarding the functional form of the association between blood pressure (BP) and cIMT in hypertensive and nonhypertensive pers...
