Meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies from the CHARGE consortium identifies common variants associated with carotid intima media thickness and plaque [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Carotid intima media thickness (cIMT) and plaque determined by ultrasonography are established measures of subclinical atherosclerosis that each predicts future cardiovascular disease events.

Morphological Changes in Carotid Arteries in Stroke Cases

open access: yesJournal of Nepal Medical Association, 2013
Introduction: Majority of stroke is due to ischemic infarction and occurs in carotid artery territory. The  extra cranial parts of carotid arteries are the common sites for the atherosclerotic plaque formation.

Intracerebral Hemorrhage after Discharge from Carotid Endarterectomy: An Extraordinary Complication Despite Standard Anticoagulation

open access: yesKardiyovasküler Tıp E Dergisi/E Journal of Cardiovascular Medicine
Carotid artery disease is the most important source of cerebrovascular diseases, causing a high rate of morbidity and mortality. While there are medical and interventional treatment options for carotid artery disease, carotid endarterectomy (CEA) is the ...

Noninvasive Imaging of Carotid Arterial Strain Using Displacement-Encoded MRI [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Stroke is the leading cause of disability in the United States and the third leading cause of death. These “brain attacks” occur when atherosclerosis, the progressive process of thickening and hardening of arterial walls, develops in the carotid ...

Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome with carotid artery dissection and cerebral infarction: a case report

open access: yesBMC Women's Health, 2023
Background and purpose Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is one of the most serious iatrogenic complications in assisted reproductive technology, which seem rarely associated with cerebrovascular diseases. We reported a patient diagnosed with OHSS

Microbiome‐blood–brain barrier interactions in aging — mechanisms and therapeutic potential

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Aging reshapes the gut microbiome (↓SCFA‐producing commensals; ↑pro‐inflammatory outputs), shifting circulating metabolites (↓SCFAs; ↑LPS, ↑TMAO, ↑PAA) that act at the BBB to increase nonspecific transcytosis, alter transport, and promote astrocyte reactivity, heightening brain vulnerability.

Revascularization strategy of coronary artery heart disease combined with severe carotid artery stenosis

open access: yesChinese Journal of Contemporary Neurology and Neurosurgery
Atherosclerosis is a common chronic systemic vascular disease that can cause coronary artery heart disease (CHD) and carotid artery stenosis. CHD and carotid artery stenosis usually coexist, and they are important risk factors for complications after ...

High‐Resolution MRI Revealed Different Etiology‐Specific Associations With Cerebral Infarction in Adult Moyamoya Vasculopathy

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective High‐resolution MRI enables detailed assessment of intracranial vessel wall pathology in moyamoya vasculopathy. We aimed to classify adult moyamoya vasculopathy etiologies using high‐resolution MRI and to examine subtype‐specific associations between high‐resolution MRI features and ischemic infarction.

Cervical Vascular Diseases Rarely Observed by Duplex Sonography: 3 Cases

open access: yesKorean Journal of Clinical Laboratory Science, 2021
Duplex sonography is used widely in various medical fields because of its repeatability and low cost. In particular, the carotid duplex sonography is a useful non-invasive test for diagnosing cerebrovascular disease and predicting the prognosis.
