Contrast-enhanced ultrasound imaging of carotid plaque neovascularization is useful for identifying high-risk patients with coronary artery disease.

Circulation Journal, 2013
BACKGROUND  Contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) in the carotid artery has potential as a technique for imaging plaque neovascularization. This study examined whether CEUS could provide information on the severity and instability of coronary artery ...

Factors associated with cardiovascular events after simultaneous liver–kidney transplant from the US Multicenter Simultaneous Liver–Kidney Transplant Consortium

Hepatology Communications, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract Cardiovascular disease is a leading complication after both liver and kidney transplantation. Factors associated with and rates of cardiovascular events (CVEs) after simultaneous liver–kidney transplant (SLKT) are unknown. This was a retrospective cohort study of adult SLKT recipients between 2002 and 2017 at six centers in six United Network ...

Alzheimer's Association clinical practice guideline for the Diagnostic Evaluation, Testing, Counseling, and Disclosure of Suspected Alzheimer's Disease and Related Disorders (DETeCD‐ADRD): Executive summary of recommendations for primary care

Alzheimer's &Dementia, EarlyView.
Abstract US clinical practice guidelines for the diagnostic evaluation of cognitive impairment due to Alzheimer's disease (AD) or AD and related dementias (ADRD) are decades old and aimed at specialists. This evidence‐based guideline was developed to empower all—including primary care—clinicians to implement a structured approach for evaluating a ...

Positional transient loss of consciousness and hemispheric deficits in the setting of severe four-vessel extracranial cerebrovascular disease

Journal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques, 2019
Carotid artery stenosis typically causes hemispheric neurologic effects by atheroembolism. Nonhemispheric symptoms, such as syncope, are generally not attributable to extracranial carotid disease.

Carotid artery stenting by non-femoral arterial approach in patients with difficult anatomy

Indian Journal of Neurosurgery, 2013
Background Carotid endarterectomy (CEA) and carotid artery stenting (CAS) are safe, effective, and standard methods to treat significant carotid artery stenosis. CAS is generally performed through femoral arterial access.

Endothelial dysfunction, carotid artery plaque burden, and conventional exercise-induced myocardial ischemia as predictors of coronary artery disease prognosis

Cardiovascular Ultrasound, 2008
BackgroundWhile both flow-mediated vasodilation (FMD) in the brachial artery (BA), which measures endothelium-dependent vasodilatation, and intima-media thickness (IMT) in the carotid artery are correlated with the prognosis of coronary artery disease ...

Early functional and structural hippocampal impairment in a bilateral common carotid artery stenosis mouse model

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Our study used behavioral tests, laser speckle flowmetry, long‐term potentiation, histochemical staining, molecular experiments, and voxel‐based morphometry to evaluate the hippocampal impairments. It demonstrates early functional and structural impairments in the hippocampus contributing to learning and memory deficits after 1 month of BCAS ...

Dual‐energy X‐ray absorptiometry for detecting neurogenic pulmonary edema in a mouse model of subarachnoid hemorrhage

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Using a murine model of SAH, brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was performed to confirm subarachnoid clot formation in the T2*‐weighted images sequence (left). Chest micro‐CT and DXA were performed to measure, respectively, the Hounsfield units (HU) and lean mass (LM) (middle) in order to test their relationship and ability to detect post‐SAH NPE (
