Hyperglycemia, duration of diabetes, and intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis by magnetic resonance angiography: The ARIC-NCS study

The association of hyperglycemia and duration of diabetes with intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis (ICAS) in the general population is not well documented. We examined whether elevated glucose and longer diabetes duration is independently associated with ICAS in a community-based sample.We cross-sectionally analyzed 1644 participants (age 67-90 years) of the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities Study who underwent cerebrovascular magnetic...
