Carotid artery disease in post‐stroke survivors and effects of enriched environment on stroke pathology in a mouse model of carotid artery stenosis

Neuropathology and Applied Neurobiology, 2019
Carotid artery disease (CAD) is an important risk factor for stroke. We first evaluated CAD and stroke pathology in elderly post‐stroke survivors. To simulate CAD, we assessed long‐term consequences of bilateral common carotid artery stenosis (BCAS) in ...
