A Pilot Study Providing Evidence for a Relationship between a Composite Lifestyle Score and Risk of Higher Carotid Intima-Media Thickness: Is There a Link to Oxidative Stress?

Table 3

Mean carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) and logistic regression analysis for the association between an RBLS of ≤6.68 and the chance of .

(a)

	()
CIMT (mm)	0.76 ± 0.18

(b)

	OR (95% CI)	value
Model A	4.11 (1.57–10.75)	0.004	28.6%	23.61
Model B	3.60 (1.19–10.88)	0.023	42.4%	35.60

Model A: adjusted for age and gender; model B: adjusted for age, gender, systolic blood pressures, diastolic blood pressures, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), fasting plasma glucose, and triglyceride/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio; RBLS: redox balance lifestyle score.
