Carotid stenosis and cryptogenic stroke
Cryptogenic stroke represents a type of ischemic stroke with an unknown origin, presenting a significant challenge in both stroke management and prevention. According to the Trial of Org 10,172 in Acute Stroke Treatment criteria, a stroke is categorized as being caused by large artery atherosclerosis only when there is >50% luminal narrowing of the ...

LES of non-Newtonian physiological blood flow in a model of arterial stenosis [PDF]
Large Eddy Simulation (LES) is performed to study the physiological pulsatile transition-to-turbulent non-Newtonian blood flow through a 3D model of arterial stenosis by using five different blood viscosity models: (i) Power-law, (ii) Carreau, (iii ...

Dynamic Cerebral Autoregulation in Carotid Stenosis Before and After Carotid Stenting
Background and Purpose: Impaired dynamic cerebral autoregulation (DCA) has been shown in patients with severe (≥70%) internal carotid artery (ICA) stenosis, but DCA in moderate (50%-69%) ICA stenosis especially its response to carotid revascularization ...
