[The state of arterial walls in patients with different characeter of atherosclerotic process and latent infection].
Examination of patients differing in manifestation of the atherosclerotic process revealed stable clusters of parameters characterizing the state of arterial walls, presence of infection, immune status, metabolic patterns, and risk factors. Relationship between these variables suggests the dependence of the atherosclerotic process on latent infection, reduced reactivity of the immune system and the action of metabolic factors.
