Resolution of Occlusive Carotid Artery Thrombus Treated with Anticoagulation as Demonstrated on Duplex Ultrasonography. [PDF]
, 2017 BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: While the majority of cerebral ischemic events due to carotid occlusive disease result from atherosclerotic plaque rupture, intraluminal carotid artery thrombus occasionally occurs in patients without preexisting carotid ...

Hyperhomocysteinemia and recurrent carotid stenosis [PDF]
BMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2008 Hyperhomocysteinemia has been identified as a potential risk for atherosclerotic disease in epidemiologic studies. This study investigates the impact of elevated serum homocysteine on restenosis after carotid endarterectomy (CEA).In a retrospective study, we compared fasting plasma homocysteine levels of 51 patients who developed restenosis during an ...

Hepatology Communications, EarlyView., 2022 Abstract Cardiovascular disease is a leading complication after both liver and kidney transplantation. Factors associated with and rates of cardiovascular events (CVEs) after simultaneous liver–kidney transplant (SLKT) are unknown. This was a retrospective cohort study of adult SLKT recipients between 2002 and 2017 at six centers in six United Network ...

Outflow boundary conditions for 3D simulations of non-periodic blood flow and pressure fields in deformable arteries [PDF]
, 2010 The simulation of blood flow and pressure in arteries requires outflow boundary conditions that incorporate models of downstream domains. We previously described a coupled multidomain method to couple analytical models of the downstream domains with 3D ...

Asymptomatic Carotid Stenosis [PDF]
Circulation, 2013 Case Presentation: A 78-year-old woman, a retired primary school principal, was referred for a second opinion regarding a recommendation that she undergo stenting of a severe carotid stenosis. A bruit in the right carotid had led to a carotid ultrasound study and a diagnosis of 80% stenosis of the right internal carotid artery.

ASCORE: an up-to-date cardiovascular risk score for hypertensive patients reflecting contemporary clinical practice developed using the (ASCOT-BPLA) trial data. [PDF]
, 2013 A number of risk scores already exist to predict cardiovascular (CV) events. However, scores developed with data collected some time ago might not accurately predict the CV risk of contemporary hypertensive patients that benefit from more modern ...

Biomarkers of Carotid Stenosis [PDF]
Physical and rehabilitation medicine, medical rehabilitation, 2021 Early recognition of rupture-prone atherosclerotic lesions in patients with high-graded carotid stenosis is an important clinical problem for preventing ischemic stroke. Various pathophysiological mechanisms are responsible for the progression and instability of plaques, such as changes in lipid composition, infiltration by immunoinflammatory cells and
