摘要
This study of 416 patients identified age, male gender, smoking, diabetes, hypertension, and hypercholesterolemia as independent predictors of thoracic aortic atherosclerotic plaque. Age, smoking, hypercholesterolemia, hypertension, and diabetes were predictors of the severity and extent of thoracic aortic atherosclerosis.
