Predictive haemodynamics in a one-dimensional human carotid artery bifurcation. Part II: application to graft design [PDF]
, 2008 A Bayesian surrogate modelling technique is proposed that may be able to predict an optimal bypass graft configuration for patients suffering with stenosis in the internal carotid artery (ICA). At the outset, this statistical technique is considered as a

Increased Expression of Interleukin-18 mRNA is Associated with Carotid Artery Stenosis
Balkan Medical Journal, 2018 Background: Carotid artery stenosis is the atherosclerotic narrowing of the proximal internal carotid artery and one of the primary causes of stroke. Elevated expression of the pleiotropic proinflammatory cytokine interleukin-18 has been demonstrated in ...

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.

Stroke prevention-surgical and interventional approaches to carotid stenosis
Indian Journal of Neurosurgery, 2013 Extra cranial carotid artery stenosis is an important cause of stroke, which often needs treatment with carotid revascularization. To prevent stroke recurrence, carotid endarterectomy (CEA) has been well-established for several decades for symptomatic ...
