Prediction of Stroke Risk by Detection of Hemorrhage in Carotid Plaques: Meta-Analysis of Individual Patient Data [PDF]
ObjectivesThe goal of this study was to compare the risk of stroke between patients with carotid artery disease with and without the presence of intraplaque hemorrhage (IPH) on magnetic resonance imaging.BackgroundIPH in carotid stenosis increases the ...

Background: Population-based studies in many countries have shown that carotid intima-media thickness (IMT) has a positive relationship with stroke. Some studies have suggested that many of the foods or body composition have effect on the risk of stroke.

Carotid Body Size on CT Angiography in Patients With COVID-19 Pneumonia
PurposeMany pathophysiological theories have been expressed regarding increased sympathetic activity along with respiratory failure in patients with COVID-19 pneumonia. In addition, the carotid bodies, which are directly related to increased blood oxygen

Luschka and the carotid body [PDF]
The ‘carotid body’ is a small structure sited at the bifurcation of the common carotid artery. The macroscopic features of the carotid body, and items of the extrinsic nervous, and vascular supplies, were initially described by Taube (1743), complemented

Bilateral carotid body paraganglioma: case report
CONTEXT: Surgical treatment of carotid body paragangliomas is a challenge to the surgeon because of the large vascularization of the tumor, involvement of the carotid vessels and the close anatomical relationship with the cranial nerves. CASE REPORT: A

Reference gene validation for qPCR in rat carotid body during postnatal development
Background The carotid bodies are the main arterial oxygen chemoreceptors in mammals. Afferent neural output from the carotid bodies to brainstem respiratory and cardiovascular nuclei provides tonic input and mediates important protective responses to ...

HIF-2α is essential for carotid body development and function. [PDF]
Mammalian adaptation to oxygen flux occurs at many levels, from shifts in cellular metabolism to physiological adaptations facilitated by the sympathetic nervous system and carotid body (CB).

Tasting Arterial Blood: What do the Carotid Chemoreceptors Sense?
The carotid bodies are sensory organs that detect the chemical composition of the arterial blood. The carotid body sensory activity increases in response to arterial hypoxemia and the ensuing chemoreflex regulates vital homeostatic functions.
