Chinese Atherosclerosis Risk Evaluation (CARE II) study: a novel cross-sectional, multicentre study of the prevalence of high-risk atherosclerotic carotid plaque in Chinese patients with ischaemic cerebrovascular events—design and rationale

open access: yesStroke and vascular neurology, 2017
Background Carotid atherosclerotic plaque is identified as one of the main sources of ischaemic stroke. However, the prevalence of carotid high-risk atherosclerotic plaque in Chinese patients with ischaemic cerebrovascular events has been inconsistently ...

Unravelling the Major Cardiovascular Risks of Systemic Psoriasis Medications: A Literature Systematic Review

open access: yesJEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory dermatological condition associated with an elevated risk of cardiovascular events (CVEs). Systemic therapies have transformed disease management, but their cardiovascular (CV) safety profiles remain incompletely understood and inconsistently reported.

Impact of Proton Pump Inhibitor Use on Outcomes Following Carotid Artery Stenting for Asymptomatic Carotid Stenosis: A Population‐Based Cohort Study

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Carotid artery stenting (CAS) is an effective treatment for carotid stenosis. Proton‐pump inhibitors (PPIs) are commonly prescribed in the general population. However, the impact of PPI use on outcomes following CAS remains unknown. This study investigated the impact of PPI use on CAS using a retrospective, matched‐cohort analysis from the ...
