Abstract Background The association between the common carotid artery (CCA) diameter and cardiovascular disease (CVD) is recognized, but the precise nature of this link remains elusive. This study aimed to investigate the potential relationship between CCA diameter and the risk of CVD mortality in a large population in northeast China. Methods The current study included 5668 participants (mean age 58.9 ± 10.1 years) from a population-based study conducted in rural areas of northeast China between September 2017 and May 2018. Information on death was collected from baseline until July 31, 2022. The CCA inter-adventitial diameter was measured using ultrasound. Cox proportional-hazard models were employed to explore the relationship between the common carotid artery diameter and cardiovascular mortality. Results At baseline, the mean CCA diameter (mm) of subjects was 7.30 ± 0.99 and increased significantly with age, ranging from 6.65 ± 0.71 among people 40–49 years to 7.99 ± 1.04 among people ≥ 80 years. CCA diameter was significantly larger in males compared to females (7.51 ± 1.03 versus vs. 7.16 ± 0.94; P |
