Mechanical identification of layer-specific properties of mouse carotid arteries using 3D-DIC and a hyperelastic anisotropic constitutive model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The role of mechanics is known to be of primary order in many arterial diseases; however, determining mechanical properties of arteries remains a challenge.

Concomitance of atherosclerotic lesions in arteries of the lower extremities and carotid arteries in patients with abdominal aorta aneurysm

open access: yesArtery Research, 2016
Atherosclerosis was considered the main cause of abdominal aorta aneurysms. Many researchers suggest the presence of the association between these two entities.

Outflow boundary conditions for 3D simulations of non-periodic blood flow and pressure fields in deformable arteries [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The simulation of blood flow and pressure in arteries requires outflow boundary conditions that incorporate models of downstream domains. We previously described a coupled multidomain method to couple analytical models of the downstream domains with 3D ...

The IkB kinase inhibitor nuclear factor-kB essential modulator–binding domain peptide for inhibition of balloon injury-induced neointimal formation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Objective—The activation of nuclear factor-kB (NF-kB) is a crucial step in the arterial wall’s response to injury. The identification and characterization of the NF-kB essential modulator– binding domain (NBD) peptide, which can block the activation of

Four Different Carotid Atherosclerotic Behaviors Based on Luminal Stenosis and Plaque Characteristics in Symptomatic Patients: An in Vivo Study

open access: yesDiagnostics, 2019
Correct stratification of ischemic stroke risk allows for the proper treatment of carotid atherosclerotic disease. We seek to differentiate plaque types based on stenosis level and plaque morphology.

Carotid and Aortic Stiffness in Patients with Heterozygous Familial Hypercholesterolemia. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
The role of plasma cholesterol in impairing arterial function and elasticity remains unclear. We evaluated arterial stiffness, measured locally in the common carotid artery by high-resolution echo-tracking, and aortic stiffness, using carotid-femoral ...

Responses to stimulation of coronary and carotid baroreceptors and the coronary chemoreflex at different ventricular distending pressures in anaesthetised dogs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Stimulation of left ventricular mechanoreceptors was believed not only to exert important effects on the circulation, but also to influence the responses to baroreceptor reflexes.

The Role of Intraindividual Carotid Artery Variation in the Development of Atherosclerotic Carotid Artery Disease: A Literature Review

open access: yesInternational Journal of Medical Students, 2019
Carotid artery disease (CAD) is associated with numerous risk factors, including hypertension, hyperlipidemia, hypercholesterolemia, diabetes mellitus, and smoking.
