- W2094132357 abstract "This study assesses atheromatous lesions and aortic stiffness of the descending thoracic aorta (DTA) in patients with hyperlipidemia by transesophageal echography (TEE) and investigates the relations between atherosclerotic lesions and aging or serum cholesterol levels in these patients. Subjects included 16 patients with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH), 15 non-FH hyperlipidemic patients (non-FH), and 17 age-matched normal subjects. With use of TEE, the DTA was divided into 4 longitudinal portions of equal length, and the atheromatous lesions of each portion of DTA were scored according to their character and extension by biplane 2-dimensional TEE. The scores of atheromatous lesions from all 4 portions were added together to give the total atheromatous score. Then, after measuring the instantaneous dimensional changes of DTA in a cardiac cycle by M-mode TEE and blood pressure (BP) by a cuff method, we calculated the aortic stiffness parameter beta = ln(systolic BP/diastolic BP)/([Dmaximum - Dminimum]/Dminimum). The beta was significantly higher in FH and non-FH subjects than in normal subjects. In both FH and non-FH subjects, the total atheromatous score correlated with total serum cholesterol levels (r = 0.64 [p <0.01]; r = 0.58 [p <0.05], respectively). There were significant correlations between age and beta in all 3 groups (FH, r = 0.67 [p <0.005]; non-FH, r = 0.53 [p <0.05]; normal subjects, r = 0.49 [p <0.05]), and the slopes of the regression lines of FH and non-FH subjects were much steeper than those of normal subjects. The incidence of atherosis in the DTA was significantly higher in hyperlipidemic patients than in normal subjects, even among the younger members of the hyperlipidemic population with progressive aortic stiffness." @default.
