Stenting versus endarterectomy for treatment of carotid-artery stenosis.

open access: yesNew England Journal of Medicine, 2010
BACKGROUND Carotid-artery stenting and carotid endarterectomy are both options for treating carotid-artery stenosis, an important cause of stroke. METHODS We randomly assigned patients with symptomatic or asymptomatic carotid stenosis to undergo ...

Protected carotid-artery stenting versus endarterectomy in high-risk patients.

open access: yesNew England Journal of Medicine, 2004
BACKGROUND Carotid endarterectomy is more effective than medical management in the prevention of stroke in patients with severe symptomatic or asymptomatic atherosclerotic carotid-artery stenosis. Stenting with the use of an emboli-protection device is a

Endarterectomy for asymptomatic carotid artery stenosis

open access: yesBritish medical journal, 1995
Reasonable doubt justifies randomisation European and North American clinicians have always differed in their management of carotid artery disease.1 Carotid endarterectomy is one of the commonest vascular procedures in North America, with over 360 ...

Pulmonary endarterectomy in the management of chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension

open access: yesEuropean Respiratory Review, 2017
Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) is a type of pulmonary hypertension, resulting from fibrotic transformation of pulmonary artery clots causing chronic obstruction in macroscopic pulmonary arteries and associated vascular remodelling ...

Long-Term Results of Stenting versus Endarterectomy for Carotid-Artery Stenosis.

open access: yesNew England Journal of Medicine, 2016
BACKGROUND In the Carotid Revascularization Endarterectomy versus Stenting Trial, we found no significant difference between the stenting group and the endarterectomy group with respect to the primary composite end point of stroke, myocardial infarction,

Dynamic Risk Stratification of Patient Long-Term Outcome After Pulmonary Endarterectomy: Results From the United Kingdom National Cohort

open access: yesCirculation, 2016
Background— Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension results from incomplete resolution of pulmonary emboli. Pulmonary endarterectomy (PEA) is potentially curative, but residual pulmonary hypertension following surgery is common and its impact on ...

Changes in retinal flow density measured by optical coherence tomography angiography in patients with carotid artery stenosis after carotid endarterectomy

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
The aim of the study presented here was to evaluate retinal and optic nerve head (ONH) perfusion in patients with severe asymptomatic carotid artery stenosis (CAS) compared with healthy controls and to analyze the impact of carotid endarterectomy using ...

Carotid Endarterectomy and Carotid Artery Stenting in the US Medicare Population, 1999-2014

open access: yesJournal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), 2017
Importance Carotid endarterectomy and carotid artery stenting are the leading approaches to revascularization for carotid stenosis, yet contemporary data on trends in rates and outcomes are limited. Objective To describe US national trends in performance

Macrophage HM13/SPP Enhances Foamy Macrophage Formation and Atherogenesis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Previous research suggests that AIP may prevent atherogenic foamy macrophage formation. This study reveals that AIP, via its chaperone interaction with AHR, inhibits p38‐c‐JUN‐mediated transactivation of HM13, which encodes the ERAD protease HM13/SPP. HM13/SPP promotes foamy macrophage formation in addition to atherogenesis and plaque foamy macrophage ...

Carotid endarterectomy for symptomatic carotid stenosis.

open access: yesCochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2017
BACKGROUND Severe narrowing (stenosis) of the carotid artery is an important cause of stroke. Surgical treatment (carotid endarterectomy) may reduce the risk of stroke, but carries a risk of operative complications.
