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

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

Bilateral non-bifurcating carotid arteries in a patient with recurrent cerebrovascular events

Neurological Research and Practice, 2021
Introduction Among congenital anomalies of the carotid artery circulation, the presence of a non-bifurcating carotid artery is extremely rare. Relevant cases with unilateral non-bifurcating carotid artery have scarcely been described in the literature ...

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

, 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 ...

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

Diagnostics, 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.

Preliminary Study Using Wearable Near-Infrared Spectroscopy for Continuous Monitoring of Hemodynamics Through the Carotid Artery

Biosensors
Non-invasive, continuous monitoring of carotid artery hemodynamics may provide valuable insights on cerebral blood perfusion (CBP). Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a non-invasive modality that may be a good candidate for real-time carotid artery ...

Carotid Artery Stenting [PDF]

Korean Circulation Journal, 2018
Carotid artery stenosis is relatively common and is a significant cause of ischemic stroke, but carotid revascularization can reduce the risk of ischemic stroke in patients with significant symptomatic stenosis. Carotid endarterectomy has been and remains the gold standard treatment to reduce the risk of carotid artery stenosis. Carotid artery stenting

Histological verification of atherosclerosis due to bends and bifurcations in carotid arteries predicted by hemodynamic model

Jornal Vascular Brasileiro
Background Tortuosity and bifurcations in carotid arteries alter the blood flow, causing atherosclerosis. Objectives The aim of the present study is to analyze the effect of variant vascular anatomy in the cervical region on development of ...

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

, 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.
