Long-term risk of carotid restenosis in patients randomly assigned to endovascular treatment or endarterectomy in the Carotid and Vertebral Artery Transluminal Angioplasty Study (CAVATAS): long-term follow-up of a randomised trial [PDF]

, 2009
Background In the Carotid and Vertebral Artery Transluminal Angioplasty Study (CAVATAS), early recurrent carotid stenosis was more common in patients assigned to endovascular treatment than it was in patients assigned to endarterectomy (CEA), raising ...

Tissue-specific mitochondrial HIGD1C promotes oxygen sensitivity in carotid body chemoreceptors

eLife, 2022
Mammalian carotid body arterial chemoreceptors function as an early warning system for hypoxia, triggering acute life-saving arousal and cardiorespiratory reflexes. To serve this role, carotid body glomus cells are highly sensitive to decreases in oxygen

Cyclic variation of the common carotid artery structure in relation to prior atherosclerotic burden and physical activity [PDF]

, 2015
Background and aims: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) accounts for the most deaths of non-communicable diseases worldwide. It begins with structural and functional changes of the arterial system commonly known as the atherosclerotic process, starting ...

A preliminary anatomical study on carotid body of Makouei sheep [PDF]

Veterinary Research Forum, 2013
The carotid is a small mass of chemoreceptor's and sustentacular cells that detects changes in the composition of the arterial blood. The aim of the present study was to identify the size, color, location, blood and nerve supply of the carotid body in ...

Fine-needle aspiration cytology diagnosis of paraganglioma (carotid body tumor)

Journal of Dr. NTR University of Health Sciences, 2015
A case of carotid body tumor was diagnosed based on fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) in 22-year-old female who presented with a mass in the right lower cervical region. Provisional diagnosis was made as metastatic deposits.

Endovascular treatment with angioplasty or stenting versus endarterectomy in patients with carotid artery stenosis in the Carotid And Vertebral Artery Transluminal Angioplasty Study (CAVATAS): long-term follow-up of a randomised trial [PDF]

, 2009
Endovascular treatment (angioplasty with or without stenting) is an alternative to carotid endarterectomy for carotid artery stenosis but there are scarce long-term efficacy data showing that it prevents stroke.

STUDIES OF CAROTID BODY AND CAROTID SINUS: FINE STRUCTURE OF CAROTID BODY

Nihon Naika Gakkai Zasshi, 1966
古くから頚動脈洞反射にかんする研究は多く, 総頚動脈分岐部には, 圧受容体と化学受容体の存在することは多くの生理学者が認めるものである. これらにかんして, イヌを用いて, 頚動脈洞を刺激し, その血中カテコールアミン体の変動を認め, さらに, 動脈血中の化学成分の変化によつて起こる呼吸反射をみとめ, 先人の業績を確認しながら, 組織像を追究した. ことに, 電顕像および組織化学的方法によつても, 頚動脈体は, 腺でも単なる血管糸球でもなく, 傍神経節でもなく, クローム親和性細胞も認められず, いわゆる頚動脈体と呼称されるのにふさわしい臓器であることを認め, さらに, 頚動脈洞壁の微細構造と比較検討し, 本小体が化学受容体とされて当然のことと結語した.
