Serum Calcium Level and Functional Atherosclerosis in Relation to Human T-Cell Leukemia Virus 1 Infection in Older Individuals

Serum Calcium Level and Functional Atherosclerosis in Relation to Human T-Cell Leukemia Virus 1 Infection in Older Individuals

Serum calcium levels are known to influence vascular function. Cells infected with human T-cell leukemia virus 1 (HTLV-1) impact serum calcium levels and also affect the endothelium. Since a damaged endothelium causes functional atherosclerosis, serum calcium levels in HTLV-1 carriers may be positiv...
