Figure 2From: Occlusal disharmony accelerates the initiation of atherosclerosis in apoE knockout ratsLipid deposition in descending aorta. Lipid deposition (red color) in the occlusal disharmony group (B) was more intense than in the control group (A). Scale bar = 25 μm. Area of lipid deposition in the occlusal disharmony group (mean ± SD) was significantly higher than in the control group (C). ap < 0.05, vs. control group, according to t-test (n = 7).Back to article page
