niacin has been researched along with Atheroma in 10 studies
Niacin: A water-soluble vitamin of the B complex occurring in various animal and plant tissues. It is required by the body for the formation of coenzymes NAD and NADP. It has PELLAGRA-curative, vasodilating, and antilipemic properties.
vitamin B3 : Any member of a group of vitamers that belong to the chemical structural class called pyridines that exhibit biological activity against vitamin B3 deficiency. Vitamin B3 deficiency causes a condition known as pellagra whose symptoms include depression, dermatitis and diarrhea. The vitamers include nicotinic acid and nicotinamide (and their ionized and salt forms).
nicotinic acid : A pyridinemonocarboxylic acid that is pyridine in which the hydrogen at position 3 is replaced by a carboxy group.

Wall volume of internal carotid arteries was measured using magnetic resonance imaging. Participants will undergo 2D and 3D carotid MRI using a 3 Tesla scanner and surface carotid coils. Participants with mild or no atherosclerosis, defined as the lowest tertile of wall volume, will have statin therapy adjusted to a target range of 100-130 mg/dL. Participants in the middle tertile will receive statin therapy adjusted to achieve a target LDL 70-100 mg/dL. Participants with the most severe atherosclerosis will receive statin therapy to an LDL target between 40 and 70 mg/dL. Participants in the Standard arm will have lipid sub-fraction targets determined according to estimated 10 year cardiovascular risk, as per standard NCEP guidelines. (NCT01212900)

"The primary endpoint of this study is carotid plaque lipid composition identified by MRI. The determination of plaque lipid content for each carotid artery will be performed using the automated interactive system. These measurements will be performed from the MRI scans at four time points blinded to time sequence of MRI examinations, patient treatment, lipid levels and clinical course.~Volume Measurements: Contours were placed around the lumen, outer-wall boundaries, and plaque features of carotid artery. (Arterial wall area) = (outer-wall area) - (lumen area). Volume calculated as: area x 2 mm (slice thickness). Tissue volume/wall volume x (100%) is presented as percentage. Annualized change presented mm^3/year (for volume) and as percentage change/year." (NCT00715273)
