European Stroke Organisation guideline on endarterectomy and stenting for carotid artery stenosis

European Stroke Journal, 2021
Atherosclerotic stenosis of the internal carotid artery is an important cause of stroke. The aim of this guideline is to analyse the evidence pertaining to medical, surgical and endovascular treatment of patients with carotid stenosis.

Long‐term outcome prediction for chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension after pulmonary endarterectomy

Clinical Cardiology, Volume 45, Issue 12, Page 1255-1263, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Background The definitive treatment for chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) is pulmonary endarterectomy (PEA), which has good long‐term outcomes. However, after surgery, a quarter of the patients still have residual pulmonary hypertension (RPH). In pulmonary hemodynamics, there are no unified criteria for RPH, even though the

Analysis of atherosclerotic plaque distribution in the carotid artery

Clinical Cardiology, Volume 45, Issue 12, Page 1272-1276, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Background The present study was designed to investigate the hypothesis that the outer wall at the carotid bifurcation is the most common area of atherosclerotic plaque deposition due to the low shear stress. Hypothesis We hypothesized that the most common site of arteriosclerosis in carotid arteries is different in the early and late stages ...

Carotid artery stenting versus endarterectomy for treatment of carotid artery stenosis.

Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2020
BACKGROUND Carotid artery stenting is an alternative to carotid endarterectomy for the treatment of atherosclerotic carotid artery stenosis. This review updates a previous version first published in 1997 and subsequently updated in 2004, 2007, and 2012.

Supersulfide biology and translational medicine for disease control

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract For decades, the major focus of redox biology has been oxygen, the most abundant element on Earth. Molecular oxygen functions as the final electron acceptor in the mitochondrial respiratory chain, contributing to energy production in aerobic organisms. In addition, oxygen‐derived reactive oxygen species including hydrogen peroxide and nitrogen

Periodontitis and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease: A critical appraisal

Periodontology 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 ...

Beneficial effect of carotid endarterectomy in symptomatic patients with high-grade carotid stenosis.

New England Journal of Medicine, 1991
BACKGROUND Without strong evidence of benefit, the use of carotid endarterectomy for prophylaxis against stroke rose dramatically until the mid-1980s, then declined. Our investigation sought to determine whether carotid endarterectomy reduces the risk of

Benefit of carotid endarterectomy in patients with symptomatic moderate or severe stenosis. North American Symptomatic Carotid Endarterectomy Trial Collaborators.

New England Journal of Medicine, 1998
BACKGROUND Previous studies have shown that carotid endarterectomy in patients with symptomatic severe carotid stenosis (defined as stenosis of 70 to 99 percent of the luminal diameter) is beneficial up to two years after the procedure.
