Research Abstract |
After the use of CAVI values as a surrogate marker of arterial stiffness, CAVI values in Amami residents were significantly lower than those in Kagoshima mainland residents and healthy Japanese population. Geographical variation was not observed in the risk factors for atherosclerosis, and the geographical difference was associated with CAVI values after adjusted for those factors. The mean CAVI values in the CC genotype of CD14 C-260T polymorphism were significantly lower than those in the TT and CT genotypes. A significant positive association was observed between CAVI values and SNP in CD14 C-260T among men aged 34-49 years (coefficient=0.21, p=0.004). No significant association was observed between seven gene polymorphisms and five-years change in CAVI values.
