Figure 1

Representative results of initial stages of atherosclerosis in descending aorta. Macrophage collection (arrowheads) was observed in the control group (A) and occlusal disharmony groups (B). Scale bar = 25 μm. Percentage of total aortic lumen area occupied by plaques (mean ± SD) was significantly higher in the occlusal disharmony group than in the control group (C). ap < 0.05, vs. control group, according to t-test (n = 7).
