PRAS40 suppresses atherogenesis through inhibition of mTORC1-dependent pro-inflammatory signaling in endothelial cells [PDF]

, 2019
Endothelial pro-inflammatory activation plays a pivotal role in atherosclerosis, and many pro-inflammatory and atherogenic signals converge upon mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR).

Hybrid Open and Endovascular Management of a Gunshot Wound to the Carotid Artery

Journal of Endovascular Resuscitation and Trauma Management, 2021
In addition to standard open surgical techniques, major hemorrhage is increasingly being managed using hybrid (open and endovascular) surgery. We present a case of hybrid management of a carotid artery injury secondary to an oropharyngeal gunshot wound.

Outcome of the External Carotid Artery Following Carotid Endarterectomy with Added External Carotid Artery Eversion Endarterectomy

Annals of Vascular Diseases, 2011
To study the results of eversion endarteterctomy of the external carotid artery (ECA) performed as part of standard CEA at a tertiary referral center using duplex ultrasonography.Sixty patients (18 women and 42 men) who underwent 65 carotid endarterectomies at Waikato Hospital between January 2006 and July 2007 for significant internal carotid artery ...

Dissection of the Common and External Carotid Artery [PDF]

Cerebrovascular Diseases, 2006
extension of the neck. Another report [2] describes 54 patients with blunt and sharp carotid artery injuries but without mentioning dissections. In 20% of the patients, the ECA was affected, but the trauma included stab wounds and gunshot wounds. Campbell et al. [3] describe a case of ECA pseudoaneurysm from hyoid bone fracture. In 1994, Minion et al. [

Smart, Bio‐Inspired Polymers and Bio‐Based Molecules Modified by Zwitterionic Motifs to Design Next‐Generation Materials for Medical Applications

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Bio‐based and (semi‐)synthetic zwitterion‐modified novel materials and fully synthetic next‐generation alternatives show the importance of material design for different biomedical applications. The zwitterionic character affects the physiochemical behavior of the material and deepens the understanding of chemical interaction mechanisms within the ...

Natriuretic Peptide Receptor 2 Locus Contributes to Carotid Remodeling

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2020
Background Carotid artery intima/media thickness (IMT) is a hallmark trait associated with future cardiovascular events. The goal of this study was to map new genes that regulate carotid IMT by genome‐wide association.

Fate of the external carotid artery following carotid interventions [PDF]

International Journal of Angiology, 2009
The external carotid artery (ECA) is an important collateral pathway for cerebral blood flow. Carotid artery stenting (CAS) typically crosses the ECA, while carotid endarterectomy (CEA) includes deliberate ECA plaque removal. The purpose of the present study was to compare the long-term patency of the ECA following CAS and CEA as determined by carotid ...

An unusual branching pattern of common and external carotid artery in a human cadaver: a case report.

Australasian Medical Journal, 2011
During a routine dissection in the Department of Anatomy of the Rural Medical College, Loni, we found a rare variation in branching pattern of the common carotid artery (CCA) and external carotid artery (ECA) bilaterally.

Microplastics from Wearable Bioelectronic Devices: Sources, Risks, and Sustainable Solutions

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Bioelectronic devices (e.g., e‐skins) heavily rely on polymers that at the end of their life cycle will generate microplastics. For research, a holistic approach to viewing the full impact of such devices cannot be overlooked. The potential for devices as sources for microplastics is raised, with mitigation strategies surrounding polysaccharide and ...
