Multiple blood flow measurements before and after carotid artery stenting via phase-contrast magnetic resonance imaging: An observational study. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2018
After carotid artery stenting, the procurement of information about blood flow redistribution among brain-feeding arteries and its time trend is essential to understanding a patient's physiological background and to determine their care regimen. Cerebral

Global and regional prevalence, burden, and risk factors for carotid atherosclerosis: a systematic review, meta-analysis, and modelling study.

Lancet Global Health, 2020
BACKGROUND Estimation of the epidemiological burden of carotid atherosclerosis can serve as a basis for prevention and management of cardiovascular disease. We aimed to provide the first estimation on the prevalence, number of cases, and risk factors for

Association of the RNF213 p.R4810K Variant With the Outer Diameter of Cervical Arteries in Patients With Ischemic Stroke

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology, 2022
Background We investigated the impact of the p.R4810K variant of RNF213 (ring finger protein 213) gene, a susceptibility gene of moyamoya disease in East Asia, on the outer diameter of cervical parts of carotid and vertebral arteries (VAs).
