Background
Over 25% of children in the United States are obeseObese children are at greater risk for dyslipidemia,
diabetes, hypertension, and premature atherosclerosisCoronary artery disease is the most common reason for
death in men and women over 20 years of age
![Page 5: PowerPoint presentation](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022110121/5590d8ff1a28ab11768b462c/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Aim
To delineate if children with obesity and dyslipidemia had premature aging of their arteries

Methods“Vascular age” was evaluated by comparing the
child’s arteries against that of a race and sex matched 45 year old
“Vascular age” was determined by measuring the carotid artery intima-media thickness (CIMT) using vascular ultrasound (Philips) and a high-resolution linear array vascular probe
CIMT was plotted against standard tables that have been published for the adult population to determine the child’s vascular age

Carotid Artery UltrasoundThe far wall of the common carotid artery 2 cm
proximal to the bifurcation was scanned for measurements of CIMT
The clips acquired from both the left and right common carotid arteries were analyzed using a semi-automated edge detection software (QLAB)
Each study consisted measuring CIMT on an average of 100 frames
CIMT measurements were tabulated in an excel spreadsheet and the grand mean CIMT and maximum CIMT were derived

ConclusionVascular age is advanced in children with risk
factors such as obesity and dyslipidemiaCarotid artery ultrasound and estimation of vascular
age may help further stratify children with risk factors who may be at greater risk for premature atherosclerosis
These children may need intensive management including pharmacotherapy for risk factor modification

Future Direction
Further studies to assess the impact of risk factor modification on vascular age
