Hypertriglyceridemia and Atherosclerotic Carotid Artery Stenosis

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2022
Both fasting and non-fasting hypertriglyceridemia have emerged as residual risk factors for atherosclerotic disease. However, it is unclear whether hypertriglyceridemia increases the risks of the progression of carotid artery stenosis.

Transcarotid repair of carotid artery pseudoaneurysm after carotid artery endarterectomy with tandem distal internal carotid artery stenosis

Journal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques, 2020
Pseudoaneurysm development after carotid endarterectomy is a rare occurrence. Even rarer is pseudoaneurysm formation associated with a distal carotid artery stenosis. We report the case of stent grafting of a carotid artery pseudoaneurysm and tandem high-

Factors associated with cardiovascular events after simultaneous liver–kidney transplant from the US Multicenter Simultaneous Liver–Kidney Transplant Consortium

Hepatology Communications, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract Cardiovascular disease is a leading complication after both liver and kidney transplantation. Factors associated with and rates of cardiovascular events (CVEs) after simultaneous liver–kidney transplant (SLKT) are unknown. This was a retrospective cohort study of adult SLKT recipients between 2002 and 2017 at six centers in six United Network ...

Carotid artery stenting versus endarterectomy for treatment of carotid artery stenosis.

Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2020
BACKGROUND Carotid artery stenting is an alternative to carotid endarterectomy for the treatment of atherosclerotic carotid artery stenosis. This review updates a previous version first published in 1997 and subsequently updated in 2004, 2007, and 2012.

Carotid Artery Stenosis

Vascular and Endovascular Review, 2019
Stroke is the third leading cause of death and the most common cause of disability. Most strokes are ischemic and can be prevented by carotid revascularization. At the present time, indications for carotid endarterectomy (CEA) include asymptomatic stenosis of more than 80% or symptomatic stenosis of more than 50%.

Carotid artery stenosis

Okayama Igakkai Zasshi (Journal of Okayama Medical Association), 2010
Carotid endarterectomy is currently the most effective intervention to prevent stroke in patients with recent symptoms of carotid stenosis.1 2 It also prevents future stroke in younger patients (under 75 years) who have not yet had symptoms, as long as the risk of stroke and death from surgery is not more than 3% Patients naturally prefer carotid ...

Increased Expression of Interleukin-18 mRNA is Associated with Carotid Artery Stenosis

Balkan Medical Journal, 2018
Background: Carotid artery stenosis is the atherosclerotic narrowing of the proximal internal carotid artery and one of the primary causes of stroke. Elevated expression of the pleiotropic proinflammatory cytokine interleukin-18 has been demonstrated in ...

Diagnostic criteria for the determination of clinically significant internal carotid artery stenosis using duplex ultrasound

Biomedical Papers, 2020
Background: Carotid endarterectomy is beneficial in symptomatic patients with ≥70% stenosis at the bifurcation of the internal carotid artery. The fact that the duplex ultrasound is widely used, inexpensive and non-invasive for examination of the carotid
