Update in the treatment of extracranial atherosclerotic disease for stroke prevention

open access: yesStroke and Vascular Neurology, 2020
Stroke is a leading cause of adult mortality and disability worldwide. Extracranial atherosclerotic disease (ECAD), primarily, carotid artery stenosis, accounts for approximately 18%–25% of ischaemic stroke.

PIEZO Force Sensing in Vascular Biology: An Explosion of New Knowledge, Concepts and Opportunity

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Knowledge of the remarkable mechanical force sensing and electrically transducing PIEZO1 and PIEZO2 channels is discussed across vascular biology and its cell types from the embryonic to adult stages in health, disease and old age. How the channels work, relate to other factors and signal for tissue responses to mechanical forces is debated.

Enhanced Embolic Signal Analysis through Ensemble Deep Learning Techniques Utilizing Transfer Learning and Layer Freezing Strategies

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A 10‐convolutional neural network ensemble using transfer learning and layer freezing analyzes 400 Doppler‐ultrasound spectrograms to distinguish speckle, artifact, and ESs. Soft and hard voting drive performance to 96.7% accuracy and 96.5% F1, highlighting a practical route for early embolus detection and stroke‐risk mitigation.

Hypertriglyceridemia and Atherosclerotic Carotid Artery Stenosis

open access: yesInternational 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. Statins are well known to prevent carotid plaque progression and improve carotid plaque instability.

Management of Cardiovascular Health Issues in Turner Syndrome: Expert Insights and Expanded Recommendations From the 2024 Guideline Development Team

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Turner syndrome (TS) is frequently complicated by congenital heart disease (CHD). While left‐sided lesions such as bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) and coarctation of the aorta are the most common structural heart lesions in TS, other anomalies, such as aortic arch malformations, hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS), persistent left superior vena
