Analysis of the Effect of Atherosclerosis with the Changes of Hematocrit: A Computational Study on the Hemodynamics of Carotid Artery [PDF]
2020 2nd International Conference on Advanced Information and
Communication Technology (ICAICT) (pp. 336-341). IEEE, 2021 Atherosclerosis is a state wherein plaque (fat, cholesterol, and different substances) develops inside the veins that in the end prompts carotid artery stenosis which is a phase of narrowing in the huge courses situated on either side of the neck that convey blood to the brain, face, and head.

Hemodynamic Bigger Hydrostatic Pressure Instead of Lower Shear Stress Aggravates Atherosclerosis [PDF]
Cardiovascular Research (2021), 2020 The traditional view is that low shear stress of blood flow accelerates atherosclerosis. How does a low shear stress damage the vessel or aggravate atherosclerosis? It is a puzzling question. Furthermore, shear stress of veins is similar to that of Relatively Vulnerable Zones (RVZ) of arteries, while intimal thickening of veins is not obvious as the ...

Novel Approaches for Predicting Risk Factors of Atherosclerosis [PDF]
Biomedical and Health Informatics, IEEE Journal of , vol.17, no.1,
pp.183,189, Jan. 2013, 2015 Coronary heart disease (CHD) caused by hardening of artery walls due to cholesterol known as atherosclerosis is responsible for large number of deaths world-wide. The disease progression is slow, asymptomatic and may lead to sudden cardiac arrest, stroke or myocardial infraction.

Label Propagation for 3D Carotid Vessel Wall Segmentation and Atherosclerosis Diagnosis [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Carotid vessel wall segmentation is a crucial yet challenging task in the computer-aided diagnosis of atherosclerosis. Although numerous deep learning models have achieved remarkable success in many medical image segmentation tasks, accurate segmentation of carotid vessel wall on magnetic resonance (MR) images remains challenging, due to limited ...

Endothelial Cell-specific Loss of Breast Cancer Susceptibility Gene 2 Exacerbates Atherosclerosis [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 The BReast CAncer type 2 susceptibility protein (BRCA2) responds to DNA damage by participating in homology-directed repair. BRCA2 deficiency culminates in defective DNA damage repair (DDR) that when prolonged leads to the accumulation of DNA damage causing cancer or apoptosis.
