Predictors for carotid and femoral artery intima-media thickness in a non-diabetic sleep clinic cohort.

<h4>Introduction</h4>The impact of sleep disordered breathing (SDB) on arterial intima-media thickness (IMT), a surrogate measure for cardiovascular disease, remains uncertain, in part because of the potential for non-SDB vascular risk factor interactions. In the present study, we determ...
