Assessment of anti-atherosclerotic effect of Eurycoma longifolia extract on high-fat diet model in rats. I: Histological study

The objective of this study was to examine the effect of Eurycoma longifolia (EL) extract on intima media thickness (IMT) of aorta in Sprague Dawley (SD) rats fed with high-fat diet. Twenty healthy male SD rats were divided into 4 groups of 5 animals each and treated for 12 weeks as follows: Group N...
