Exercise and Carotid Atherosclerosis [PDF]

European Journal of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery, 2008
Both carotid atherosclerosis or increased carotid intima-media thickness (IMT) are common manifestations of generalized atherosclerosis, closely associated with increased risk of stroke and myocardial infarction. Despite the predominant involvement of physical activity in cardiovascular prevention and rehabilitation strategies, its role in carotid ...

Carotid atherosclerosis and dementia

Gériatrie et Psychologie Neuropsychiatrie du Viellissement, 2015
Over the past decade a growing interest has been devoted to exploring the role of atherosclerosis in the development of dementia. Despite a well-known association between atherosclerosis risk factors in middle-life with later cognitive decline, the pathophysiological pathways underlying this association remain unclear.

Management of Asymptomatic Carotid Atherosclerosis

Neurosurgery, 1986
The detection, evaluation, and treatment of patients with asymptomatic carotid artery disease are controversial issues. In this review, these issues are addressed and the appropriate application of medical and surgical therapies is discussed. There seem to be two subgroups of asymptomatic patients with angiographically defined lesions (marked stenosis ...

Predictive Value of Carotid Bruit for Carotid Atherosclerosis

Archives of Neurology, 1989
To assess the predictive value of carotid bruit for moderate-to-severe carotid atherosclerosis, the results of carotid arteriograms performed on 1004 subjects were correlated with the findings of auscultation of the carotid arteries. Predictive values of carotid bruit for ipsilateral extracranial carotid atherosclerosis were 77% for localized bruits ...

Carotid Bifurcation Geometry and Atherosclerosis

Angiology, 2016
Hemodynamic changes occurring at the initial segments of the arterial bifurcations appear to play an important role in the development of atherosclerotic plaque. Therefore, arterial geometry might be a potential marker for atherosclerosis. Considerable evidence suggests that geometry can influence local hemodynamics at the carotid bifurcation ...

Clinical carotid atherosclerosis

Neuroimaging Clinics of North America, 2002
Atherogenesis is an inflammatory process that begins in childhood. Early detection of atherosclerosis might allow for selection of subjects at risk for future cerebrovascular events at a time when dietary and lifestyle modification may have its greatest impact, and medical intervention may be useful for those who are refractory to such treatment or who

Gallstones are associated with carotid atherosclerosis

Liver International, 2007
AbstractBackground/Aims: Gallstone disease (GD) and cardiovascular disease (CD) are common diseases worldwide with considerable economical impact and they are strongly associated. Carotid atherosclerosis is an excellent marker of risk for CD like stroke and myocardial infarction.

Socioeconomic Status and Carotid Atherosclerosis

Circulation, 1995
BackgroundThere is a consistent body of evidence that socioeconomic status (SES) is importantly associated with cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. However, little information currently exists on the relationship between SES and early manifestations of atherosclerotic vascular disease.Methods and ResultsWe investigated the association between ...
