Description
Torrico-Lavayen and co-authors test if vessel health marks explain how fine dust thickens neck arteries. Fine dust in air raises the risk of artery disease. The team studied 251 adults from a Mexico City gene study. They gauged dust load over time for each person. Neck artery wall width was read by scan.
Each added unit of dust load linked to about 19 microns more wall width. The link held for both sides of the neck. Two marks, NOx and l-arginine, did not carry the effect. L-arginine did fall as dust load rose. The authors conclude the dust effect runs through other paths.
