Atherosclerosis in rheumatoid arthtritis: the role of high-resolution B mode ultrasound in the measurement of the arterial intima-media thickness
Background: Patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) have a reduced life expectancy and high cardiovascular morbidity and mortality as compared to the general population. A number of possible factors for the atherogenesis in this disease have been described, such as homocysteine, altered serum levels...
