RESUMO
The intima-media thickness (IMT) of common carotid artery was measured using B-mode ultrasonography in 55 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) and 25 normal controls. The serum levels of soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 ( sICAM-1) and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein ( hs-CRP) were measured by ELISA and high-sensitivity particle enhanced immunonephelometry respectively. The results suggest that sICAM-1 and hs-CRP were risk factors of thickened IMT in type 2 DM.
