Diagnostic and prognostic significance of lncRNA SOX2-OT in patients with carotid atherosclerosis
Background This paper aimed to analyze IncRNA SOX2-OT expression in patients with carotid atherosclerosis and to elucidate the predictive significance of SOX2-OT on carotid atherosclerosis. Methods The levels of SOX2-OT from 185 participants were tested.

Genetics of Ultrasonographic Carotid Atherosclerosis [PDF]
The search for genes related to the cause of common complex disorders such as cardiovascular disease has been frustrating, partly because of the many factors known to contribute to cardiovascular disease and the potential “distance” of cardiovascular disease as a phenotype from genes and gene products.

Subclinical Carotid Artery Atherosclerosis and Cognitive Function: A Mini-Review
Carotid artery atherosclerosis, the result of a multitude of vascular risk factors, is a promising marker for use in risk stratification. Recent evidence suggests that carotid artery atherosclerosis affects cognitive function and is an independent risk ...

Asymptomatic Carotid Disease and Cognitive Impairment: What Is the Evidence?
The development of cognitive dysfunction and dementia is a complex, multifactorial process. One of the contributors to various types of cognitive dysfunction is carotid atherosclerosis which can frequently be seen in asymptomatic individuals. There are a

Subclinical hypothyroidism and risk to carotid atherosclerosis [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to assess whether subclinical hypothyroidism (SCH) is associated with carotid atherosclerosis, as well as dyslipidemia, and arterial hypertension. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: The study included 69 consecutive patients with newly diagnosed SCH, and 30 matched healthy controls. Body mass index (BMI), TSH, fT4, antibodies to

ABSTRACT Introduction/Objective Acute intracranial stenting during endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) for ischemic stroke requires intraprocedural antiplatelet therapy (APT) to maintain patency. However, the hemorrhagic risk of combining APT with intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) remains uncertain.

Chlamydia Pneumoniae in Asymptomatic Carotid Atherosclerosis [PDF]
We evaluated, in 415 patients with asymptomatic carotid atherosclerosis: (i) the prevalence of C. pneumoniae DNA in atherosclerotic carotid plaques and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC); (ii) the distribution of C. pneumoniae in atherosclerotic carotid plaques and PBMC from the same patients; (iii) the correlation between circulating anti ...

ABSTRACT Background Ischemic stroke, a major cause of mortality and long‐term disability, results from the abrupt cessation of cerebral blood flow due to vascular occlusion or rupture. Icosapent Ethyl (EPA‐EE), approved for hypertriglyceridemia, has anti‐inflammatory and antithrombotic properties that may lessen ischemic damage.
