Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We investigated the relationship of serum sclerositn levels to vascular calcification events at caroid artery using 290 women longitudinally. Serum sclerositn levels were measured using frozen serum obtained in the 15-year follow-up survey. The number of vascular calcification events which occurred during the 10-year and 20-year follow-up survey was twenty-seven. The event rates of the lowest, middle, highest tertile of sclerostin levels were 10.4%, 10.3%, 7.2%, respectively (p-value for trend test=0.446). Odds ratio of 1SD increase in log-transformed sclerositn for vascular calcification events neither indicated statistical significance (Odds ratio, 1.00, p-value of 0.988).
