CT attenuation analysis of carotid intraplaque hemorrhage [PDF]

, 2018
Background and Purpose: Intraplaque hemorrhage is considered a leading parameter of carotid plaque vulnerability. Our purpose was to assess the CT characteristics of intraplaque hemorrhage with histopathologic correlation to identify features that allow ...

Carotid Artery Stent Continued Expansion Days After Deployment, Without Post Stent Deployment Angioplasty. [PDF]

, 2015
This is a carotid artery stent (CAS) case report, which avoids post-stent deployment angioplasty (Post-SDA), with duplex confirmed continued stent expansion at 1, 3 and 30-day post deployment.

Contemporary prevalence of carotid stenosis in patients presenting with ischaemic stroke

British Journal of Surgery, 2019
Carotid stenosis is a common cause of ischaemic stroke and transient ischaemic attack (TIA). Despite rising recognition and centralization of stroke services there has been a decline in interventions for carotid stenosis in recent years.

Secondary recurrent carotid stenosis [PDF]

Journal of Vascular Surgery, 1996
Recurrent carotid stenosis after carotid endarterectomy has been extensively reported. The occurrence, however, of another ipsilateral restenosis that requires a third carotid operation is rare. The purpose of this study was to evaluate possible risk factors and the most efficacious management of the patient with "secondary" recurrent carotid stenosis ...

Management of patients with carotid stenosis [PDF]

Pathophysiology of Haemostasis and Thrombosis, 2002
Carotid atherosclerosis is one of the main risk factors for ischemic stroke. The annual risk of ipsilateral stroke for asymptomatic, albeit severe stenoses is as low as 1 to 2%, but increases to 13% in patients with recent ischemic symptoms. However the risk decreases after the first 2-3 years from the symptomatic episode, dropping to 3%.

Atherosclerotic carotid plaque composition: a 3T and 7T MRI-histology correlation study [PDF]

, 2016
Background and Purpose Carotid artery atherosclerotic plaque composition may influence plaque stability and risk of thromboembolic events, and non-invasive plaque imaging may therefore permit risk stratification for clinical management.

Monocyte/lymphocyte ratio is associated with carotid stenosis in ischemic stroke: A retrospective analysis

Brain and Behavior, 2019
Carotid artery stenosis, mainly caused by carotid atherosclerosis, is related to ischemic stroke. This study was to investigate whether monocyte/lymphocyte ratio (MLR) was associated with increased severity of carotid stenosis in patients with ischemic ...

Biologics May Prevent Cardiovascular Events in Rheumatoid Arthritis by Inhibiting Coronary Plaque Formation and Stabilizing High-Risk Lesions. [PDF]

, 2020
ObjectiveTo evaluate whether biologic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) decrease cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and whether biologic DMARDs might have a beneficial effect on coronary plaque formation or ...

Carotid revascularization and medical management for asymptomatic carotid stenosis – Hemodynamics (CREST-H): Study design and rationale

International Journal of Stroke, 2018
Rationale For patients with asymptomatic high-grade carotid stenosis, clinical investigations have focused on preventing cerebral infarction, yet stenosis that reduces cerebral blood flow may independently impair cognition. Whether revascularization of a

Asymptomatic severe carotid stenosis [PDF]

Journal of Vascular Surgery, 1989
The management of asymptomatic carotid stenosis remains controversial. From December 1983 to December 1987, 188 symptom-free patients were found to have severe (greater than 75%) stenosis by duplex imaging (performed as screening examination). Patients with non-hemispheric symptoms or contralateral symptomatic lesions (within 7 years) were excluded ...
