Modern Management of Asymptomatic Carotid Stenosis: A Meta‐Analysis of CREST‐2, SPACE‐2, and ECST‐2

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Recent randomized trials (CREST‐2, SPACE‐2, and ECST‐2) have compared carotid revascularization (carotid endarterectomy [CEA] or carotid artery stenting [CAS]) plus contemporary medical therapy (CMT) versus CMT alone in asymptomatic carotid stenosis.

Case Report: Two cases of survival after complete transection of the left common carotid artery

open access: yesFrontiers in Surgery, 2023
Penetrating carotid artery traumas are rare yet fatal injuries with a high rate of mortality, and survivors may live with neurological sequelae. Of all the types of penetrating carotid artery traumas, the total transection of the common carotid artery ...

Media Thickness Measurement of the Common Carotid Artery [PDF]

open access: yes2007 29th Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, 2007
The intima-media thickness (IMT) of the common carotid artery (CCA) is widely used as an early indicator of the development of cardiovascular disease (CVD). It was proposed but not thoroughly investigated that the media thickness (MT), its composition and texture may be indicative for identifying the risk of stroke and differentiating between patients ...

Microvascular damage is associated with carotid wall structural changes in Systemic Sclerosis: a capillaroscopy and ultrasound‐based observational study

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Introduction Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is characterized by cardiovascular risk excess not fully explained by traditional factors. Whether the severity of microvascular damage correlates with structural subclinical atherosclerosis remains unclear. We investigated the relationship between nailfold videocapillaroscopy (NVC) abnormalities and carotid ...
