Rough Set Based Approach for IMT Automatic Estimation [PDF]

, 2012
Carotid artery (CA) intima-media thickness (IMT) is commonly deemed as one of the risk marker for cardiovascular diseases. The automatic estimation of the IMT on ultrasound images is based on the correct identification of the lumen-intima (LI) and media ...

Methotrexate use, not interleukin 33, is associated with lower carotid intima-media thickness in patients with rheumatoid arthritis

Advances in Rheumatology, 2019
Background Rheumatoid arthritis is a risk factor for early mortality due to cardiovascular disease. Interleukin-33 appears to protect against the development of atherosclerosis.

Carotid Atherosclerosis and Cognitive Impairment in Nonstroke Patients

Chinese Medical Journal, 2017
Objective: As a vascular risk factor, carotid atherosclerosis is crucial to cognitive impairment. While carotid intima-media thickness, carotid artery plaque, and carotid stenosis can reflect carotid atherosclerosis in different stages, this review aimed

The Effects of Biologic Agents on Carotid Intima‐Media Thickness and Hepatic Steatosis in Patients With Moderate‐To‐Severe Psoriasis: A Prospective Observational Cohort Study

JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
In this prospective observational cohort study, 34 patients with moderate‐to‐severe psoriasis received biologic therapy (anti‐TNF‐α, anti‐IL‐12/23, or anti‐IL‐17) for 6 months. Carotid intima–media thickness decreased significantly in the overall cohort (p < 0.01), with the greatest reductions in the anti‐IL‐17 and anti‐IL‐12/23 groups.

Structural Carotid Atherosclerosis and Mild Behavioral Impairment: A Cross‐Sectional Study in a Community‐Dwelling Population

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mild behavioral impairment (MBI) is a late‐life neuropsychiatric syndrome proposed as an early clinical manifestation of neurodegenerative disease. Vascular pathology contributes to late‐life cognitive and behavioral changes; however, its relationship with MBI remains insufficiently characterized.
