Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Carotid pulse wave velocity at the beginning and end of systole

    To establish the range of pulse wave velocity at the beginning of the systole (BS) and at the ending of the systole (ES) of normal carotid artery, and to identify the influencing factors for BS and ES in the carotid artery.

    1 day

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Carotid artery intima-media thickness (IMT)

    1 day

  • Serum biochemical index

    1 day

Study Arms (6)

Sampling MethodProbability Sample
Study Population

1200 healthy adults with normal physical examination items will be selected from the physical examination center. According to sex and age stratification, totally 1200 cases will contain 600 males and 600 females. From 18 to 79 years old, they will be divided into 6 groups: 18-29 years, 30-39 years, 40-49 years, 50-59 years, 60-69 years and 70-79 years (n=200 per group).

You may qualify if:

  • Han nationality
  • Age between 18 and 79 years old
  • Normal body mass index (18-25 kg/m2)
  • Normal blood pressure (139-90/89-60 mmHg)
  • No history of cardiovascular disease or respiratory diseases
  • Physical examination reveals no abnormalities in cardiovascular and respiratory systems
  • Normal blood glucose, blood lipid and electrocardiogram (ECG)
  • Echocardiography shows no structural heart disease and normal cardiac function
  • Normal carotid ultrasound
  • No history of cardiovascular drug use

You may not qualify if:

  • Heart valve regurgitation with clinical significance or moderate symptom and above
  • Respiratory system disease: acute or chronic respiratory disease
  • Endocrine diseases: thyroid disease, diabetes mellitus, aldosteronism, pheochromocytoma, and adrenal cortex dysfunction.
  • Metabolic syndrome
  • Anemia
  • Pregnant or lactating women
  • Abnormal liver function (more than twice the normal upper limit), abnormal renal function (creatinine \> 2 mg/dl), total cholesterol \> 190 mg/dl. If Pro-BNP is detected, Pro-BNP is abnormal or in high limit of normal value.
  • Connective tissue disease
  • Tumor
  • Aortic and peripheral vascular diseases: aortic dilatation, aortic dissection, coarctation of the aorta, polyarteritis, atherosclerosis
  • Daily drinking: liquor greater than 50 ml; red wine more than 100 ml; beer more than 300 ml
  • Professional sportsman
  • The poor quality of ultrasonic images cannot meet parameter measurement and analysis
