Association between lipid profiles and presence of carotid plaque

Scientific Reports, 2019
It is indicated that lipids profiles are associated with carotid plaque and Atherosclerosis. However, studies about the relationship between serum lipid profiles and carotid plaque composition in Chinese Population is limited.

Effect Differences of Omega‐3 Fatty Acids From Plant Oil and Fish Oil on Human Health

AgriFood: Journal of Agricultural Products for Food, EarlyView.
Omega‐3 fatty acids in plant oil is no less than fish oil on human health. ALA in plant oil takes directly healthy effects without conversion to DHA and EPA. Plant oil can be substitutes for fish oil to support partial ω‐3 fatty acids. For people who cannot afford fish oil, plant oil is also good for public health.

Atherosclerotic plaque in carotid arteries in systemic lupus erythematosus: frequency and associated risk factors

São Paulo Medical Journal
CONTEXT AND OBJECTIVE: Atherosclerotic disease is an important cause of morbidity and mortality in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients. No previous study has estimated carotid disease prevalence in such patients in Brazil. The aim was to evaluate

Synthetic Gel of Carotid Artery Plaque [PDF]

International Journal of Immunopathology and Pharmacology, 2007
Atherosclerosis is a complex disease that affects medium and large arteries, leading to the formation and progression of plaque. In this process the proteins play an essential role and as a consequence, proteomic-based strategies examining the protein content of cells or tissues could offer a useful approach for the study of plaque proteins.

Comparison of Carotid Plaque Score and Coronary Artery Calcium Score for Predicting Cardiovascular Disease Events: The Multi‐Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis

Journal of the American Heart Association : Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2017
Background Coronary artery calcium (CAC) predicts coronary heart disease (CHD) events better than carotid wall plaque presence; however, differences in the utility of CAC burden and carotid plaque burden across the spectrum of cardiovascular disease (CVD)

Atherectomy With Multimodal Embolic Protection for Severely Calcified Femoropopliteal Lesions

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Severe calcification in femoropopliteal lesions remains a clinical challenge to achieve both the technical and long‐term success in endovascular therapy. Although atherectomy is an effective treatment for calcified lesions, it is associated with the risk of distal embolization, even with the use of embolic protection devices (EPDs), and ...

Cholesterol Mass Efflux Capacity, Incident Cardiovascular Disease, and Progression of Carotid Plaque

Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis and Vascular Biology, 2018
Objective— To assess the role of HDL (high-density lipoprotein)-mediated cholesterol mass efflux capacity (CMEC) in incident cardiovascular disease and carotid plaque progression. Approach and Results— We measured CMEC in 2 cohorts aged 45 to 84 years at

Ultrasonographic Measure of Carotid Plaque Burden [PDF]

JACC: Cardiovascular Imaging, 2013
In their excellent paper, Sillesen et al. ([1][1]) omitted mention of the original work on measurement of carotid plaque burden. Spence et al. ([2][2]) first measured carotid total plaque area (TPA) in 1990, and developed it for patient management and genetic research, and 3-dimensional methods ...

CD163+ macrophages are associated with a vulnerable plaque phenotype in human carotid plaques

Scientific Reports, 2020
Macrophages are a functionally heterogeneous group of immune cells abundant in atherosclerotic plaques. Macrophages expressing CD163 are associated with intraplaque hemorrhage and have previously been considered atheroprotective.

Connecting the dots: A narrative review of the relationship between heart failure and cognitive impairment

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1119-1131, April 2025.
Abstract Large clinical data underscore that heart failure is independently associated to an increased risk of negative cognitive outcome and dementia. Emerging evidence suggests that cerebral hypoperfusion, stemming from reduced cardiac output and vascular pathology, may contribute to the largely overlapping vascular dementia and Alzheimer's disease ...
