Periodontitis and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease: A critical appraisal

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract In spite of intensive research efforts driving spectacular advances in terms of prevention and treatments, cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) remain a leading health burden, accounting for 32% of all deaths (World Health Organization. “Cardiovascular Diseases (CVDs).” WHO, February 1, 2017, https://www.who.int/news‐room/fact‐sheets/detail ...

Carotid artery stenting [PDF]

open access: yesHeart, 2003
Two major randomised trials concerning the surgical treatment of carotid artery stenosis showed that carotid endarterectomy is superior to medical treatment in reducing the overall risk of stroke in symptomatic or asymptomatic patients.w1–4 The first phase of the North American endarterectomy trial (NASCET)w1 confirmed the superiority for symptomatic ...

The use of intravascular lithotripsy in conjunction with transcarotid artery revascularization for high grade carotid artery stenosis

open access: yesAnnals of Vascular Surgery - Brief Reports and Innovations, 2021
Transcarotid artery revascularization (TCAR) with dynamic flow reversal has been shown to be safe and effective in preventing stroke during carotid artery stenting (CAS), and has offered a less invasive option for carotid revascularization.

Endovascular treatment with angioplasty or stenting versus endarterectomy in patients with carotid artery stenosis in the Carotid And Vertebral Artery Transluminal Angioplasty Study (CAVATAS): long-term follow-up of a randomised trial [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Endovascular treatment (angioplasty with or without stenting) is an alternative to carotid endarterectomy for carotid artery stenosis but there are scarce long-term efficacy data showing that it prevents stroke.

Length of carotid stenosis predicts peri-procedural stroke or death and restenosis in patients randomized to endovascular treatment or endarterectomy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
BackgroundThe anatomy of carotid stenosis may influence the outcome of endovascular treatment or carotid endarterectomy. Whether anatomy favors one treatment over the other in terms of safety or efficacy has not been investigated in randomized trials ...

Endovascular Management for Carotid Artery Stenosis with or without using of Distal Protection Device [PDF]

open access: yesAl-Azhar International Medical Journal, 2023
Background: Internal carotid artery atherosclerotic stenosis is an important cause for transient ischemic attacks and ischemic strokes. Treatment of carotid artery stenosis could be achieved by medical, surgical, endovascular intervention and stenting or

Carotid Artery Stenting [PDF]

open access: yesKorean Circulation Journal, 2018
Carotid artery stenosis is relatively common and is a significant cause of ischemic stroke, but carotid revascularization can reduce the risk of ischemic stroke in patients with significant symptomatic stenosis. Carotid endarterectomy has been and remains the gold standard treatment to reduce the risk of carotid artery stenosis. Carotid artery stenting

Optimal cut-off criteria for duplex ultrasound for the diagnosis of restenosis in stented carotid arteries: Review and protocol for a diagnostic study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Background: Carotid angioplasty with stenting is a relatively new, increasingly used, less-invasive treatment for the treatment of symptomatic carotid artery stenosis. It is being evaluated in ongoing and nearly finished randomized trials.

The Role of Carotid Stenting

open access: yesJournal of Endovascular Therapy, 2007
Despite a number of randomized trials, debate continues about the role of carotid angioplasty and stenting (CAS) for both symptomatic and asymptomatic disease. None of the trials has shown superiority of one treatment modality over the other, but protagonists of stenting have encouraged a shift away from conventional surgery.

Long-term risk of carotid restenosis in patients randomly assigned to endovascular treatment or endarterectomy in the Carotid and Vertebral Artery Transluminal Angioplasty Study (CAVATAS): long-term follow-up of a randomised trial [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Background In the Carotid and Vertebral Artery Transluminal Angioplasty Study (CAVATAS), early recurrent carotid stenosis was more common in patients assigned to endovascular treatment than it was in patients assigned to endarterectomy (CEA), raising ...
