Transcranial Color‐Coded Duplex Sonography in Large‐Vessel Vasculitis Compatible With Takayasu Arteritis Presenting Intracranial Involvement and Vertebrobasilar Dolichoectasia: A Case Report

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
This case illustrates sequential intracranial occlusions in large‐vessel vasculitis compatible with Takayasu arteritis preserving perfusion through robust collateral pathways. Transcranial color‐coded duplex sonography identified characteristic blunted flow patterns and focal turbulence, underscoring its value in detecting hemodynamic compromise beyond

Design of the Tocilizumab in Giant Cell Arteritis Trial [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Overview. The GiACTA trial is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, and placebo-controlled study designed to test the ability of tocilizumab (TCZ), an interleukin (IL)-6 receptor antagonist, to maintain disease remission in patients with giant cell ...

Association between glucocorticoid therapy and incidence of diabetes mellitus in polymyalgia rheumatica and giant cell arteritis: a systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Background: Polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR) and giant cell arteritis (GCA) are almost always treated with glucocorticoids (GCs), but long-term GC use is associated with diabetes mellitus (DM).

Ultrasound, PET/CT or temporal artery biopsy for giant cell arteritis? A prospective diagnostic accuracy study (the GAME‐study)

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To investigate the diagnostic performance of ultrasound, 2‐deoxy‐2‐[18F]fluoro‐D‐glucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (2‐[18F]FDG PET/CT) and temporal artery biopsy (TAB) in giant cell arteritis (GCA). Methods This was a prospective single‐centre diagnostic accuracy study (ClinicalTrials.gov NCT05248906).

Myocardial Infarction Due to Giant Cell Arteritis: A Case Report and Literature Review

open access: yesKaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, 2007
Giant cell arteritis occurs mainly in the cranial arteries, especially in the temporal area, and rarely in the coronary arteries. Here, we present a case of coronary artery giant cell arteritis in a 51-year-old woman who complained of atypical chest pain.

The Role of Ultrasound Compared to Biopsy of Temporal Arteries in the Diagnosis and Treatment of Giant Cell Arteritis (TABUL): a diagnostic accuracy and cost-effectiveness study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background: Giant cell arteritis (GCA) is a relatively common form of primary systemic vasculitis, which, if left untreated, can lead to permanent sight loss. We compared ultrasound as an alternative diagnostic test with temporal artery biopsy, which may

Anterolateral‐Thigh Fascia Lata Free Flap Versus Fibula Free Flap for Mandibular Osteoradionecrosis

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, Volume 136, Issue 6, Page 2565-2572, June 2026.
The anterolateral thigh fascia lata “rescue” free flap has been employed as a novel tool in the treatment of advanced partial thickness mandibular osteoradionecrosis. Compared with the traditional fibula free flap for the same indication, the “rescue” flap provides similar outcomes in terms of disease resolution, superior functional outcomes, and ...

Endothelin-1 promotes vascular smooth muscle cell migration across the artery wall: a mechanism contributing to vascular remodelling and intimal hyperplasia in giant-cell arteritis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Background: Giant-cell arteritis (GCA) is an inflammatory disease of large/medium-sized arteries, frequently involving the temporal arteries (TA). Inflammation-induced vascular remodelling leads to vaso-occlusive events. Circulating endothelin-1 (ET1) is

Quantification of Vascular Burden on Cranial Vessel Wall Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Ophthalmic Complications in Giant Cell Arteritis

open access: yesACR Open Rheumatology, Volume 8, Issue 5, May 2026.
Objective There is a need for measures of disease severity for giant cell arteritis (GCA), which may enable identification of high‐risk subgroups (eg, ophthalmic complications) and individualized approaches to therapy. We derived a continuous score using data from cranial vessel wall magnetic resonance imaging (VW‐MRI) to quantify vascular burden in ...
