Intima-media thickening and impaired endothelium-dependent vasodilation are complex phenotypes determined by genetic and environmental factors. Few studies assessed these phenotypes in the same subjects. The goal of our study was to assess the sex-specific intrafamilial aggregation of ultrasonographic carotid intima-media thickness (IMT) and brachial flow-mediated vasodilation (FMD) in a Siberian population.
