The WHO-ISFC study on pathobiological determinants of atherosclerosis in youth (PBDAY): a first morphometric approach to aortic lesions
One of the aims of the PBDAY Study (WHO-ISFC) is to examine, both in children and young adults, the arterial structural changes which may determine the development of atherosclerosis, especially in its early s...
