Morphological analyses showed a high prevalence of osteoid metaplasia in femoral arteries (63%) compared to carotid arteries (20%, p < 0.001). Biochemical analyses were consistent with histological data, showing higher calcium and lesser cholesterol concentrations in femoral than in carotid plaques...
