Age as a risk factor: you are as old as your arteries.

S M Grundy.   

Abstract

Advancing age is a major risk factor for coronary heart disease and is an indicator of coronary plaque burden. Noninvasive assessment of subclinical atherosclerosis is a better measurement of plaque burden and can provide a better assessment of "arterial age."
