Comprehensive genetic screening for vascular Ehlers–Danlos syndrome through an amplification‐based next‐generation sequencing system

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 191, Issue 1, Page 37-51, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Vascular Ehlers–Danlos syndrome (vEDS) is a hereditary connective tissue disorder (HCTD) characterized by arterial dissection/aneurysm/rupture, sigmoid colon rupture, or uterine rupture. Diagnosis is confirmed by detecting heterozygous variants in COL3A1.

Long‐term outcomes after paclitaxel‐coated balloon angioplasty of femoropopliteal arteries in Asian patients of the IN.PACT Global Study

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, Volume 100, Issue 7, Page 1273-1283, December 1, 2022., 2022
Abstract Objectives The long‐term data on the use of drug‐coated balloons (DCBs) for femoropopliteal atherosclerotic lesions in the real‐world setting are limited, even more so for racially and geographically distinct populations. The present analysis reports the 5‐year safety and effectiveness outcomes of a DCB in the Asian subset of the prospective ...

Carotid stenting technique and review of literature – What every resident should know [PDF]

open access: yesRomanian Journal of Neurology, 2022
Carotid artery stenosis is a prevalent and substantial cause of ischemic stroke; however, in patients who have significant symptomatic stenosis, carotid revascularization can lower their chances of having an ischemic stroke.

Computed poststenotic flow instabilities correlate phenotypically with vibrations measured using laser Doppler vibrometry : perspectives for a promising in vivo device for early detection of moderate and severe carotid stenosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Early detection of asymptomatic carotid stenosis is crucial for treatment planning in the prevention of ischemic stroke. Auscultation, the current first-line screening methodology, comes with severe limitations that create urge for novel and robust ...

Machine learning for detection of stenoses and aneurysms: application in a physiologically realistic virtual patient database [PDF]

open access: yesBiomechanics and Modeling in Mechanobiology (2021), 2021
This study presents an application of machine learning (ML) methods for detecting the presence of stenoses and aneurysms in the human arterial system. Four major forms of arterial disease -- carotid artery stenosis (CAS), subclavian artery stenosis (SAC), peripheral arterial disease (PAD), and abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) -- are considered.

Analysis of atherosclerotic plaque distribution in the carotid artery

open access: yesClinical Cardiology, Volume 45, Issue 12, Page 1272-1276, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Background The present study was designed to investigate the hypothesis that the outer wall at the carotid bifurcation is the most common area of atherosclerotic plaque deposition due to the low shear stress. Hypothesis We hypothesized that the most common site of arteriosclerosis in carotid arteries is different in the early and late stages ...

Measuring carotid stenosis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Neurology, Neurosurgery & Psychiatry, 2003
Comparing a new test with a standard involves measuring disagreement. In the case of measuring carotid artery stenosis, some of the disagreement between different tests is because of inherent differences in how the stenosis is demonstrated (test characteristics). This is what we are most interested in when assessing a new technology.

The brain‐before‐heart strategy for coronary artery bypass grafting in the severely atherosclerotic aorta: A single‐institution experience

open access: yesClinical Cardiology, Volume 45, Issue 12, Page 1264-1271, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Background Severe atherosclerosis of the ascending aorta (SAA) in patients undergoing surgical revascularization by coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is becoming an increasing problem as more elderly patients are diagnosed with coronary artery disease.

Management of Asymptomatic Carotid Stenosis [PDF]

open access: yesNeurologic Clinics, 2015
Patients with asymptomatic carotid stenosis (ACS) are at very high risk of coronary events, so they should all receive intensive medical therapy. What is often accepted as "best medical therapy" is usually suboptimal. Truly intensive medical therapy includes lifestyle modification, particularly smoking cessation and a Mediterranean diet.

Use of lipid‐lowering therapies in patients with chronic kidney disease and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease: 2‐year results from Getting to an imprOved Understanding of Low‐Density lipoprotein cholesterol and dyslipidemia management (GOULD)

open access: yesClinical Cardiology, Volume 45, Issue 12, Page 1303-1310, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Background Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a known risk factor of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). Per the 2018 American Heart Association/American College of Cardiology cholesterol guidelines, high‐risk ASCVD patients with CKD and low‐density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL‐C) levels ≥ $\ge $ 70 mg/dL should take a high‐intensity ...
