Abstract:
Respiratory alterations have been associated with subsequent coronary heart diseases in numerous population-based studies. The results of the present study suggest that bronchial hyperresponsiveness (which reflects local inflammation in the bronchus) is independently associated with common carotid intima-media thickness in men free of cardiovascular diseases. The interrelationships between cardiovascular and respiratory alterations should be further investigated.
