Carotid artery disease screening : assessment of criteria [PDF]

, 1996
The Department of Radiology at St. Luke’s Hospital has provided a screening service for stroke related disease since April 1991. This consisted of Duplex Ultrasound screening (DUS) for Extracranial Carotid Artery Disease (ECAD) followed by angiography or

Protocol for electrophysiological monitoring of carotid endarterectomies. [PDF]

, 2010
Near zero stroke rates can be achieved in carotid endarterectomy (CEA) surgery with selective shunting and electrophysiological neuromonitoring. though false negative rates as high as 40% have been reported.

Endothelial BMP6 Drives Hemodynamic‐Dependent VSMCs Calcification in Carotid Atherosclerosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The study demonstrates that endothelial cell (EC)‐derived BMP6 promotes the osteogenic differentiation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) through cell‐cell interactions. Additionally, the researchers preliminarily explore the driving effect of hemodynamic factors on BMP6‐induced calcification and reveal the regulatory role of KLF4 on BMP6.

Potentiating Cerebral Perfusion Normalizes Glymphatic Dynamics in Systemic Inflammation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
LPS‐induced systemic inflammation increases glymphatic influx but delays cervical lymphatic drainage, accompanied by AQP4 depolarization and impaired glymphatic clearance. Enhancing cerebral blood flow via the inotropic agent levosimendan effectively restored AQP4 polarization, improving glymphatic flux and amyloid‐β clearance.

Ultrafine Molybdenum Wire Braided Neurointerventional Implants: Bridging Biodegradability and Neurovascular Safety for Stroke Treatment

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Molybdenum (Mo), with its unique strength, uniform corrosion, and radiopacity, enables innovative biodegradable implants for transformative stroke therapy. Abstract Neurovascular implants for stroke intervention face a critical dilemma: permanent devices (e.g., nitinol stents, platinum coils) often trigger chronic inflammation and recurrence, whereas ...

Natriuretic peptide receptor-C is up-regulated in the intima of advanced carotid artery atherosclerosis [PDF]

, 2016
OBJECTIVE: Natriuretic peptide receptor-C (NPR-C/NPR-3) is a cell surface protein involved in vascular remodelling that is up-regulated in atherosclerosis. NPR-C expression has not been well characterized in human carotid artery occlusive lesions.

Monocyte‐Differentiation‐Activated Fluorescent “Scout” Probe for Precise in Vivo Detection of Vulnerable Plaque

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An innovative monocyte‐differentiation‐activated fluorescent “scout” probe (MDAF) leverages the inherent chemotaxis of monocytes toward vulnerable plaques (VAP) to enable efficient targeted delivery while achieving spatiotemporally controllable activation of its AIE fluorescent signals with the dynamic differentiation of monocytes, providing an ...
