Background: Pentraxins are generally considered acute phase proteins. Pentraxin 3 (PTX3), a long pentraxin, has been identified as an inflammatory biomarker, and its blood levels increase rapidly and dramatically in inflammatory conditions. Elevated plasma PTX3 levels were reported in patients with high systolic and diastolic blood pressures, and PTX3 can be an early marker of arteriosclerotic vascular damage. Carotid artery intima-media thickness (cIMT) is a well-established surrogate marker for subclinical atherosclerosis. However, the association between biomarkers of systemic inflammation and atherosclerosis progression in carotid artery is not well established.
