Arterial Remodeling in the Subclinical Carotid Artery Disease

open access: yesJACC: Cardiovascular Imaging, 2009
ObjectivesWe sought to identify clinical and/or plaque characteristics that affect atherosclerotic disease progression and arterial remodeling in the carotid artery with subclinical stenosis.BackgroundIncreasing severity of stenosis has been associated with a higher risk of stroke.

Metagenomic Analysis of Bacterial Microflora in Dental and Atherosclerotic Plaques of Patients With Internal Carotid Artery Stenosis

open access: yesClinical Medicine Insights: Cardiology
Background: Internal carotid artery stenosis is primarily attributed to atherosclerosis in the carotid artery bifurcation. Previous studies have detected oral bacteria in atherosclerotic lesions, suggesting an association between oral bacteria and ...
