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

open access: yesBiosensors
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]

open access: yesKorean 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

open access: yesJornal 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 ...

Meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies from the CHARGE consortium identifies common variants associated with carotid intima media thickness and plaque [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Carotid intima media thickness (cIMT) and plaque determined by ultrasonography are established measures of subclinical atherosclerosis that each predicts future cardiovascular disease events.

Optimal cut-off criteria for duplex ultrasound for the diagnosis of restenosis in stented carotid arteries: Review and protocol for a diagnostic study

open access: yesBMC Neurology, 2009
BackgroundCarotid angioplasty with stenting is a relatively new, increasingly used, less-invasive treatment for the treatment of symptomatic carotid artery stenosis. It is being evaluated in ongoing and nearly finished randomized trials.

Triptans and CGRP blockade - impact on the cranial vasculature [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The trigeminovascular system plays a key role in the pathophysiology of migraine. The activation of the trigeminovascular system causes release of various neurotransmitters and neuropeptides, including serotonin and calcitonin gene-related peptide ...

1.6 DETRIMENTAL EFFECTS ON CAROTID PERFUSION OF INTRA-AORTIC BALLOON PUMP SUPPORT

open access: yesArtery Research, 2009
Introduction: Intra-aortic balloon pumping is widely used to augment diastolic coronary perfusion. However, far less is known about its effects on other large arteries. In this study we assessed the effects of intra-arterial balloon pump pressure support

Bilateral carotid artery geometry using magnetic resonance angiography: a 10-year longitudinal single center study

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Aging and atherosclerotic progression can lead to geometric changes in the carotid arteries. We conducted a longitudinal study to investigate geometric changes in the bilateral carotid arteries.
