Objective To examine the association of atherosclerosis burden in the survivors of an asymptomatic elderly cohort study and its relationship to other coronary risk factors (specifically, age) by evaluating aortic atherosclerotic wall burden by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Methods A total of 312 participants in an ongoing observational cohort study underwent cardiac and descending thoracic aorta imaging by MRI. Maximum wall thickness was measured and the mean wall thickness calculated.Wall/outer wall ratio was used as a normalized wall index (NWI) adjusted for artery size difference among participants. Percent wall volume (PWV) was calculated as NWI ×100.Results In this asymptomatic cohort (mean age: 76 years), the mean (SD) aortic wall area andwall thicknesswere 222 ±45 mm2 and 2.7 ±0.4 mm, respectively. Maximum wall thickness was 3.4 ±0.6 mm, and PWV was 32% ±4%. Women appeared to have smaller wall area,but after correcting for their smaller artery size, had significantly higher PWV than men (P = 0.03). Older age was associatedwith larger wall area (P = 0.04 for trend) with similar PWVs. However, there were no statistically significant associations between standard risk factors,Framingham global risk, or metabolic syndrome status, therapy for cholesterol or hypertension, coronary or aortic calcium score, and the aortic wall burden. Aortic calcificationwas associated with coronary calcification. Conclusions Asymptomatic elderly in this cohort had a greater descending thoracic aortic wall volume that correlated with age, andwomen had a significantly increased PWV compared to men. In these survivors, the atherosclerotic aortic wall burden was not significantly associated with traditional risk factors or with coronary or aortic calcium scores or coronary calcium progression. Results suggest that age, or as yet unidentified risk factor(s), may be responsible for the increase in atherosclerosis.

背景冠的心疾病(CHD ) 的发生是更高的在北比在南部的中国，然而，在传统的 CHD 的差别冒险的，解释这。没有学习在可以帮助在发生解释差别的无临床症状的动脉粥样硬化检验了差别。这研究为在北、南部的中国之间的石灰化用冠的计算断层摄影术(CT ) 在无临床症状的动脉粥样硬化检验了这些差别。我们在一个大多中心选择了参加者的一件随机的样品的方法为冠的钙在一个北城市(诺思) 里扫描的进行中的流行病的学习(北京， n = 49 ) 并且在二个南部的城市(南方) 里(上海， n = 50，并且广州， n = 50 ) 。从三个领域中心的参加者(意味着年龄 67 年) 经历了用动脉粥样硬化扫描的多种族的学习为冠的钙测量扫描的冠的风险因素评估和心脏的 CT 协议。结果调整了在诺思中国(北京) 的转变木头的冠的动脉钙 20 是 3.1 +/-0.4 并且在华南(上海和广州) 是 2.2 +/- 0.3 (P = 0.04 ) 。为北京的北城市的吝啬的钙分数比广州的南部的城市的高三倍(P = 0.01 ) 并且比为上海的南部的城市高 2.5 倍(P = 0.03 ) 。结论无临床症状的动脉粥样硬化的程度在广州和上海的二个南部的城市里比那在北京的北城市里是显著地更高的，甚至在为标准心脏的风险因素调整以后。这发现建议标准风险因素充分不在临床的 CHD 发生解释北方南方差别。
