BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE
To explore relationships among gender, body size, neck size, and the diameters of the common carotid artery (CCA) and internal carotid artery (ICA).
METHODS
Using multivariate regression, the best predictors of sonographic diameters of CCA and ICA were determined based on age, height, weight, body mass index, body surface area, neck circumference, neck length, and blood pressure.
RESULTS
Measurements were obtained in 500 consecutive patients (age 52+/-15 years; 61% women). Mean diameters of ICA (4.66+/-0.78 mm) and CCA (6.10+/-0.80 mm) in women were significantly smaller than in men: 5.11+/-0.87 mm and 6.52+/-0.98 mm, respectively. Sex significantly influenced the diameters after controlling for body size, neck size, age, and blood pressure.
CONCLUSIONS
Carotid arteries are smaller in women even after adjusting for body and neck size, age, and blood pressure.
背景与目的
探讨性别、体型、颈部尺寸与颈总动脉（CCA）和颈内动脉（ICA）直径之间的关系。
方法
采用多元回归分析，根据年龄、身高、体重、体重指数、体表面积、颈围、颈长和血压确定CCA和ICA超声直径的最佳预测指标。
结果
对500例连续患者（年龄52±15岁；61%为女性）进行了测量。女性ICA平均直径（4.66±0.78mm）和CCA平均直径（6.10±0.80mm）显著小于男性，分别为5.11±0.87mm和6.52±0.98mm。在控制体型、颈部尺寸、年龄和血压后，性别对直径有显著影响。
结论
即使在调整了体型、颈部尺寸、年龄和血压后，女性的颈动脉仍较小。
