Analysis of atherosclerotic plaque distribution in the carotid artery

open access: yesClinical Cardiology, Volume 45, Issue 12, Page 1272-1276, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Background The present study was designed to investigate the hypothesis that the outer wall at the carotid bifurcation is the most common area of atherosclerotic plaque deposition due to the low shear stress. Hypothesis We hypothesized that the most common site of arteriosclerosis in carotid arteries is different in the early and late stages ...

Variations, relations and clinical significance of carotid arterial system in anterior neck: a cadaveric study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Background: The common carotid, internal and external carotid arteries and their branches serve as major source of blood supply in head-neck region of human and are often encountered during numerous surgical and clinical interventions of neck.Methods: We

A cadaveric study on variations in branching pattern of external carotid artery

open access: yesAnatomy & Cell Biology, 2018
Variations in the vascular anatomy of the carotid triangle have been reported in current scientific literature. The carotid arteries, being the major feeding arteries of the head and neck deserve special importance and protection from iatrogenic injury ...

Orexinergic neurons in the hypothalami of an Asiatic lion, an African lion, and a Southeast African cheetah

open access: yesJournal of Comparative Neurology, Volume 531, Issue 3, Page 366-389, February 2023., 2023
Photomicrograph of orexinergic neurons forming the main orexinergic neuronal cluster in the hypothalamus of a Southeast African cheetah. While showing the standard features of the orexinergic system, the Southeast African cheetah, along with an Asiatic and an African lion, also exhibits specializations in the organization of this system.

Variations in external carotid artery branches and common carotid bifurcation level: a computed tomography angiography study

open access: yesThe Egyptian Journal of Radiology and Nuclear Medicine, 2023
Background The common carotid bifurcation level is an important surgical landmark during head and neck surgery, especially endarterectomy, that could be omitted in patients with high bifurcation levels to reduce damage to neighboring structures like the ...

Variations in branching pattern of external carotid artery in a black Kenyan population [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Knowledge of variations in branching of external carotid artery is important to minimise inadvertent injury and confusion in identification during neck and craniofacial surgery and interventional neuroradiology.

Vascular co‐option and vasculogenic mimicry mediate resistance to antiangiogenic strategies

open access: yesCancer Reports, Volume 5, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Background The concept that all the tumors need the formation of new vessels to grow inspired the hypothesis that inhibition of angiogenesis would have led to “cure” cancer. The expectancy that this type of therapy would have avoided the insurgence of resistance was based on the concept that targeting normal vessels, instead of the cancer ...

Bilateral thyrolinguofacial trunk: unusual and rare branching pattern of external carotid artery

open access: yesAnatomy & Cell Biology, 2018
Prior knowledge of arterial supply to the head and neck is of substantial importance for well-planned surgeries involving the concerned region. We are reporting an unusual and rare variation in the branching pattern of external carotid artery in a 60 ...
