Improved prognosis prediction of all‐cause mortality and cardiovascular events by combined assessment of both ankle‐brachial index and brachial‐ankle pulse wave velocity in individuals with diabetes: The Kyushu prevention study for atherosclerosis, a prospective, multicenter survey

open access: yesJournal of Diabetes Investigation, EarlyView.
A novel algorithm combining ABI and baPWV was developed to predict mortality and CVD risk in individuals with diabetes. This algorithm improved the accuracy of mortality and CVD risk assessment and was independent from the Framingham Risk Score. ABSTRACT Aims/Introduction People with diabetes exhibit early‐stage cardiovascular disease (CVD).

Potential of low apolipoprotein A-I as a surrogate marker of vulnerable carotid artery plaques

open access: yesJournal of Stroke and Cerebrovascular Diseases
Objective: Recent studies suggested that the medical control of atherogenic lipoproteins is not sufficient for stroke prevention. A low apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) level may play a crucial role in the anti-atherogenic effects of high-density lipoprotein (

Measurement of Carotid Stenosis Using Duplex Ultrasonography with a Microconvex Array Transducer: A Validation with Cerebral Angiography

open access: yes, 2013
Background: We aimed to evaluate the validity of duplex ultrasonography (DUS) using a microconvex array transducer (MAT) with enhanced flow imaging (EFI) for visualization of the distal, internal carotid artery (ICA) and the accurate assessment of ICA ...

Periodontal Medicine Rewired: Mechanisms Linking Periodontitis to Systemic Diseases

open access: yesJournal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This review reorganizes decades of research in periodontal medicine into a multi‐dimensional framework, illustrating how periodontitis influences systemic health through at least seven interconnected mechanisms. ABSTRACT Periodontitis is now recognized not merely as a localized oral condition but as a systemic disease linked to over 70 communicable and

Long-term outcomes of stenting and endarterectomy for symptomatic carotid stenosis: a preplanned pooled analysis of individual patient data

open access: yes, 2019
Background: The risk of periprocedural stroke or death is higher after carotid artery stenting (CAS) than carotid endarterectomy (CEA) for the treatment of symptomatic carotid stenosis. However, long-term outcomes have not been sufficiently assessed.

Contributions of vascular ageing to late‐onset Alzheimer's disease

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Late‐onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD) is an age‐related disease that is strongly associated with vascular risk factors and cerebrovascular impairments. As such, changes in the vasculature with advancing age likely contribute to LOAD, but the mechanisms underlying these contributions remain incompletely understood.

Carotid artery dissection linked to intermittent apnoeic swimming: A case–control study

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Internal carotid artery (ICA) dissection is a rare and potentially devastating cause of cerebral ischaemia, initiated by an intimal tear or rupture of the vasa vasorum, that can lead to an intraluminal thrombus, vascular stenosis, occlusion, or dissecting aneurysm formation.
