Endothelial BMP6 Drives Hemodynamic‐Dependent VSMCs Calcification in Carotid Atherosclerosis

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 2, 9 January 2026.
The study demonstrates that endothelial cell (EC)‐derived BMP6 promotes the osteogenic differentiation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) through cell‐cell interactions. Additionally, the researchers preliminarily explore the driving effect of hemodynamic factors on BMP6‐induced calcification and reveal the regulatory role of KLF4 on BMP6.

A Streamline Strategy for Indication and Length of Telemetry Monitoring After TAVR

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, Volume 107, Issue 1, Page 142-152, January 1, 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Both indication and length of ECG telemetry monitoring (TM) after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) are not well defined. Aims We hypothesize that a targeted strategy for monitoring conductive disorders (CD) post‐TAVR can reduce the need and duration of in‐hospital TM without compromising safety. Methods We prospectively

Carotid artery stenting compared with endarterectomy in patients with symptomatic carotid stenosis (International Carotid Stenting Study): a randomised controlled trial with cost-effectiveness analysis [PDF]

, 2002
BACKGROUND: Carotid artery stenting (CAS) is an alternative to carotid endarterectomy (CEA) for the treatment of carotid stenosis, but safety and long-term efficacy were uncertain. OBJECTIVE: To compare the risks, benefits and cost-effectiveness

Association Between Carotid Atherosclerosis and Post‐Stroke Cognitive Impairment in Patients With Mild Ischemic Stroke: A Prospective Cohort Study

CNS Neuroscience &Therapeutics, Volume 32, Issue 1, January 2026.
Carotid ultrasound parameters, particularly Crouse score and severe carotid stenosis, are independently associated with post‐stroke cognitive impairment and may serve as simple, non‐invasive predictors for early risk stratification. ABSTRACT Background Post‐stroke cognitive impairment (PSCI) is a common yet frequently overlooked complication that ...

Successful treatment of iatrogenic internal carotid artery pseudoaneurysm following carotid endarterectomy with thrombin injection: a case report

Journal of Medical Case Reports
Background Iatrogenic pseudoaneurysms arising from the internal carotid artery subsequent to carotid endarterectomy are exceptionally infrequent. Herein, we present a case detailing an internal carotid artery pseudoaneurysm that manifested subsequent to ...
