pubmed:abstractText |
Hyperinsulinemia is a well known risk factor for cardiovascular event. However, it is not known whether hyperinsulinemia facilitates atherosclerotic complex lesions of aorta in non-diabetic patients. We investigated whether hyperinsulinemia is an independent marker of severity of atherosclerosis in thoracic aorta of non-diabetic patients using multiplane transesophageal echocardiography (TEE).
