Serum Ferritin Is Not a Risk Factor for Extracranial Carotid Arterial Disease in Men and Women Aged ≥60 Years
1997
Abstract In a prospective study of 236 men and 568 women aged ≥60 years, 40% to 100% extracranial carotid arterial disease (ECAD) was present in 46 men (19%) and in 83 women (15%) (p = NS). The percentage of patients with increased serum ferritin levels and the mean serum ferritin levels were not significantly different between men with and without 40% to 100% ECAD, nor between women with and without 40% to 100% ECAD.
