Current Management of Carotid Atherosclerosis
Military Medicine, 1995Carotid atherosclerosis affects thousands of individuals each year. A history of transient ischemic attacks should alert the clinician to the possibility of carotid artery disease. Carotid endarterectomy is of proven benefit in both symptomatic and asymptomatic individuals, with angiographically confirmed carotid stenosis of from 70 to 99 ...

Predictive Value of Carotid Bruit for Carotid Atherosclerosis
Archives of Neurology, 1989To 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 ...

Atherosclerosis of the Carotid Artery
2019Atherosclerosis, a disease affecting the large- and medium-sized vessels, is present in every human being. Atherosclerotic plaques can directly or indirectly cause obstruction of the arterial blood supply, causing ischemic damage distal from the occlusion.

[Carotid sinus atherosclerosis].
Arkhiv patologii, 2007A morphological study of 200 atherosclerotic carotid sinus (CS) plaques obtained at carotid endarterectomy revealed the structural components and processes characteristic for severe atherosclerosis (foci of atheromatosis and edema, necrosis of collagen and elastic fiber, newly formed vessels and hemorrhages of various duration, lipophages and ...

Snoring and carotid artery atherosclerosis
Current Neurology and Neuroscience Reports, 2009Introduction: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) syndrome is a common disorder, especially in middle-aged men, in whom the prevalence is about 4%. Snoring is a feature of OSA but can occur in patients without sleep apnea, with a prevalence of 15% in women and 54% in men.

Introduction to Carotid Atherosclerosis
2020We present a brief overview of carotid atherosclerosis, including a historical perspective, epidemiology, clinical presentation, and imaging modalities. The first known description of the carotid artery dates back to Hippocrates (400–200 BC), but this knowledge has grown extensively.

Carotid Atherosclerosis in Kidney Disease
2013Recently, chronic kidney disease (CKD) has become a major public health problem and a risk factor for all-cause mortality, cardiovascular disease (CVD). To prevent cardiovascular disease as early as possible, subclinical studies for CKD are essential. Recently, carotid atherosclerosis has been evaluated by measurement of the intima-media thickness (IMT)

Noninvasive Imaging of Carotid Atherosclerosis
2010Carotid artery stenosis is a leading, treatable risk factor for stroke. Until recently, risk prediction has, for the main part, been based on the degree of lumen narrowing which does not reflect our actual insight into the etiology of arterio-embolic stroke.

Pathophysiology of Carotid Atherosclerosis
2011Stroke continues to be a significant cause of morbidity and mortality throughout the world. According to the World Health Organization, 15 million people suffer stroke worldwide annually and of these, 5 million die, and another 5 million are permanently disabled. In the United States, about 795,000 people suffer from stroke, and 143,579 people die from
