Fig. 1 Scatter-plot of carotid IMT values in 2001 in subjects with or without metabolic syndrome. P-value for interaction term is adjusted for age, sex, LDL-cholesterol, family history of coronary artery disease, smoking, leptin, insulin, CRP, HDL-cholesterol, waist circumference, triglycerides, systolic blood pressure and glucose. Lines are derived from linear regression models. Atherosclerosis 2011 217, 234-239DOI: (10.1016/j.atherosclerosis.2011.03.016) Copyright © 2011 Elsevier Ireland Ltd Terms and Conditions
