Abnormally increased carotid intima media-thickness and elasticity in patients with Morquio A disease

Table 5 Echocardiographic and demographic parameters of the Morquio A cohort indicating high prevalence of mitral and aortic valve pathology, as well as aortic root dilatation. Aortic root Z-scores that indicate aortic root dilatation are highlighted in bold. n.a.; not analyzed
