Association of serum hemoglobin level with the risk of carotid plaque beyond metabolic abnormalities among asymptomatic adults without major adverse clinical events: a cross-sectional cohort study

Association of serum hemoglobin level with the risk of carotid plaque beyond metabolic abnormalities among asymptomatic adults without major adverse clinical events: a cross-sectional cohort study

Abstract Background The serum hemoglobin (Hb) level is closely related to adverse clinical outcomes. However, data on the association of Hb levels with subclinical atherosclerosis beyond metabolic abnormalities are limited. Methods This study evaluated the association among serum Hb level, metabolic...
