Final MRI-IPH prediction modela

Carotid IPH PredictorPRP Value95% CI
Maximum plaque thickness, per 1-mm increase1.40<.0011.18–1.67
Low vitamin D level of <30 ng/mL, low versus high2.05.031.06–3.96
  • a The final prediction model for the presence of MRI-detected carotid IPH depended on 2 factors: maximum plaque thickness and low vitamin D levels.
