Association of Chinese Visceral Adiposity Index and Its Dynamic Change With Risk of Carotid Plaque in a Large Cohort in China [PDF]

open access: goldJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2022
Background We aimed to evaluate the association between the Chinese visceral adiposity index (CVAI) and its dynamic change and risk of carotid plaque based on a large Chinese cohort. Methods and Results This cohort included 23 522 participants aged 20 to

Non-HDL-C/HDL-C ratio is associated with carotid plaque stability in general population: A cross-sectional study

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2022
BackgroundCarotid atherosclerosis, especially the rupture of unstable plaques, plays an important role in the development of stroke. A novel lipid ratio, the non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C)/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C)

Comparison of carotid‐femoral and brachial‐ankle pulse wave velocity in association with carotid plaque in a Chinese community‐based population

open access: diamondThe Journal of Clinical Hypertension, 2022
Pulse wave velocity (PWV) is the most widely used measurement of arterial stiffness in clinical practice. This study aimed to evaluate and compare the relationships between carotid‐femoral pulse wave velocity (cfPWV) and brachial‐ankle PWV (baPWV) and ...

Nonlinear Association Between Atherogenic Index of Plasma and Unstable Carotid Plaque: A Single-Center Retrospective Study [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease
Background: The atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) is a marker of lipids and atherosclerosis. However, the association between the AIP and the risk of unstable carotid plaque remains unclear. Methods: A total of 10,732 patients were enrolled.

Ultrasonic and clinical risk factors of solitary Plaque-RADS-2 carotid plaque for predicting anterior circulation ischemic stroke [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine
BackgroundPlaque-RADS-2 carotid plaque is regarded as a low risk for attribution of cerebrovascular events. Nevertheless, in individuals with carotid plaque, the risk of ischemic stroke poses a continuous threat to both health and quality of life.

Remnant cholesterol is associated with unstable carotid plaque in a neurologically healthy population [PDF]

open access: yesStroke and Vascular Neurology
Background Remnant cholesterol (RC) is considered to be one of the most significant and important risk factors for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). Nonetheless, the association between RC and unstable carotid plaque remains unclear.

Triglyceride-Glucose Index Is Related to Carotid Plaque and Its Stability in Nondiabetic Adults: A Cross-Sectional Study

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2022
BackgroundCarotid plaque plays an important role in the development of stroke. The triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index is a reliable alternative marker of insulin resistance.
