Physical Activity and Characteristics of the Carotid Artery Wall in High‐Risk Patients—The SMART (Second Manifestations of Arterial Disease) Study

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2017
BackgroundPhysical activity reduces the risk of vascular disease. This benefit is not entirely explained through an effect on vascular risk factors.

Advances in the management of carotid artery disease: focus on recent evidence and guidelines.

open access: yesJournal of Cardiothoracic and Vascular Anesthesia, 2012
Recent landmark randomized trials and society guidelines have significantly revised the management of carotid artery disease. Duplex ultrasonography is the recommended initial diagnostic test for the assessment of extracranial carotid artery stenosis ...

Identification of Schwann Cells in Human Intracranial Arteries: Potential Regulatory Role in Atherosclerotic Plaque Progression

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Schwann cells may facilitate intracranial plaque progression via neurovascular remodelingcting with vascular smooth muscle cells in atherosclerotic plaques, with the SPP1 ‐ ITGB1 signaling axis mediating this interaction as a novel mechanism. Abstract Intracranial atherosclerosis (ICAS), a common cause of ischemic stroke, remains a therapeutic ...

Carotid Artery Sonography Findings in 291 Patients Undergoing Cabg

open access: yesMajallah-i Dānishgāh-i ’Ulūm-i Pizishkī-i Shahīd Ṣadūqī Yazd, 2006
Introduction: Doppler ultrasonography (DUS) is the most preferable method for screening of carotid artery disease in patients undergoing CABG. The purpose of this study was to investigate the frequency of carotid artery disease and determine the relation

Ferrocene‐Functionalized Black Phosphorus Nanoplatform Enables Targeted and Prolonged MRI Visualization of Atherosclerotic Plaques

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Aminoferrocene is employed to modify black phosphorus, generating stable phosphorus radicals (FcP). The FcP is then functionalized with hyaluronic acid (HA) to produce the HA‐FcP radical complex, thereby developing a novel, highly efficient, sensitive, long‐lasting, and low‐heavy‐metal‐content radical contrast agent for targeted imaging of ...

A companion to the preclinical common data elements for rodent models of pediatric acquired epilepsy: A report of the TASK3‐WG1B, Pediatric and Genetic Models Working Group of the ILAE/AES Joint Translational Task Force

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract Epilepsy syndromes during the early years of life may be attributed to an acquired insult, such as hypoxic–ischemic injury, infection, status epilepticus, or brain trauma. These conditions are frequently modeled in experimental rodents to delineate mechanisms of epileptogenesis and investigate novel therapeutic strategies.

Ulceration and carotid artery disease. [PDF]

open access: yesStroke, 1988
L'importance de l'ulceration des plaques carotidiennes comme cause de symptomes ischemiques cerebraux reste controversee. Une ulceration est souvent observee dans les plaques homolaterales aux symptomes ischemiques mais habituellement en association a une stenose importante.

Skin autofluorescence is increased in patients with carotid artery stenosis and peripheral artery disease

open access: yesThe International Journal of Cardiovascular Imaging, 2011
Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) have a pivotal role in atherosclerosis. We evaluated skin autofluorescence (SAF), a non-invasive measurement of tissue AGE accumulation, in patients with carotid artery stenosis with and without coexisting ...
