Pre‐ and Post‐Interventional Hemodynamic Characterization of the Femoropopliteal Artery Using Vector Flow Imaging in Peripheral Arterial Occlusive Disease

open access: yesJournal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
Objectives The femoropopliteal (FP) artery is the most frequently revascularized segment in peripheral artery disease (PAD), followed by the iliac segment. Wall shear stress (WSS) is a key local factor implicated in both atherosclerotic plaque formation and restenosis after angioplasty.

The role of biomechanics in the assessment of carotid atherosclerosis severity: a numerical approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Numerical fluid biomechanics has been proved to be an efficient tool for understanding vascular diseases including atherosclerosis. There are many evidences that atherosclerosis plaque formation and rupture are associated with blood flow ...

Impact of Proton Pump Inhibitor Use on Outcomes Following Carotid Artery Stenting for Asymptomatic Carotid Stenosis: A Population‐Based Cohort Study

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Carotid artery stenting (CAS) is an effective treatment for carotid stenosis. Proton‐pump inhibitors (PPIs) are commonly prescribed in the general population. However, the impact of PPI use on outcomes following CAS remains unknown. This study investigated the impact of PPI use on CAS using a retrospective, matched‐cohort analysis from the ...

Association between asymptomatic carotid atherosclerosis and degenerative aortic stenosis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
OBJECTIVE: Degenerative aortic stenosis shows similarities with atherosclerosis. To confirm the hypothesis that aortic stenosis is an "atherosclerosis-like" disease, we investigated the association between degenerative aortic stenosis and ...

Impact of CYP2C19 Genotype Variants on PCSK9 Inhibitor Efficacy in Lipid‐Lowering Among Patients With Symptomatic Intracranial Atherosclerotic Stenosis

open access: yesLipids, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ischemic stroke is frequently associated with symptomatic intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis (sICAS), is a leading cause of global disability and mortality. Current guidelines recommend dual antiplatelet and intensive statin therapies. Proprotein convertase subtilisin 9/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) inhibitors have emerged as a potent lipid‐lowering

Jointly Learned 3D Non‐Cartesian Sampling With Wave Encoding and Reconstruction for Neurovascular Phase Contrast MRI

open access: yesMagnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose To develop accelerated 3D phase contrast (PC) MRI using jointly learned wave encoding and reconstruction. Methods Pseudo‐fully sampled neurovascular 4D flow data (N = 40) and a simulation framework were used to learn phase encoding locations, wave readout parameters, and model‐based reconstruction network (MoDL) for a rapid 3D PC scan (
