Journal 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.

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology, 2023 Introduction The indication for carotid endarterectomy in symptomatic carotid stenosis of 50% or more was established based on catheter angiography. Yet, in practice, operative referral is still largely based on non‐invasive imaging.

The 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 ...

Carotid Stenting without Angioplasty [PDF]
Canadian Journal of Neurological Sciences / Journal Canadien des Sciences Neurologiques, 2002 Abstract:Background:Carotid angioplasty and stenting is gaining popularity as an alternative to carotid endarterectomy for the treatment of carotid bifurcation stenosis. The major concern with the procedure is the risk of embolic stroke which may be initiated by balloon angioplasty of friable atherosclerotic plaque.

Lipids, 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
