Carotid plaque thickness predicts cardiovascular events and death in patients with chronic kidney disease
Abstract Background Classical risk scoring systems underestimate the risk of cardiovascular disease in chronic kidney disease (CKD). Coronary artery calcium score (CACS) has improved prediction of cardiovascular events in patients with CKD. The maximal carotid plaque thickness (cPTmax) measured in u...
