A Study Design to Evaluate Association between Smoking and Intracranial Atherosclerotic Stenosis [PDF]

Neurointervention, 2014
PurposeSmoking is a well known risk factor for stroke. The cerebral arteries may be uniquely susceptible to the atherosclerotic effects of smoking, such that it has a different risk profile for stroke compared with other atherosclerosis risk factors.

Future of Endovascular and Surgical Treatments of Atherosclerotic Intracranial Stenosis

Stroke
Intracranial atherosclerotic disease and resultant intracranial stenosis is a global leading cause of stroke, and poses an ongoing treatment challenge. Among patients with intracranial stenosis, those with hemodynamic compromise are at high risk for recurrent stroke despite medical therapy and risk factor modification.

Hemodynamic assessment of intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis: comparison between invasive non-hyperemic pressure ratio and angiography-derived quantitative flow ratio [PDF]

Frontiers in Neurology
ObjectivesTo evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of the quantitative flow ratio (QFR) for hemodynamic exploration of intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis, using the invasive cerebrovascular pressure ratio (CVPR) and resting full-cycle ratio (RFR) as ...

Safety and Efficacy of Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty for Intracranial Atherosclerotic Stenosis

Stroke, 1995
Background and Purpose Percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PCTA) is increasingly used to treat extracerebral arterial stenosis. The present study evaluates the safety and efficacy of PCTA treatment of symptomatic intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis.

Symptomatic and asymptomatic intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis: 3 years' prospective study. [PDF]

, 2020
BACKGROUND Intracranial stenoses can cause TIA/ischaemic stroke. The purpose of this study was to assess vascular risk factors, clinical and imaging findings and outcome in Caucasians with intracranial stenosis under best prevention management ...

Treatment of Atherosclerotic Intracranial Arterial Stenosis [PDF]

Stroke, 2009
David Pelz MD L. Nelson Hopkins MD Elad Levy MD Section Editors: Atherosclerotic stenosis of the major intracranial arteries (intracranial internal carotid artery, middle cerebral artery, vertebral artery, basilar artery) is probably the most common cause of stroke worldwide.1 Intracranial atherosclerosis causes 30% to 50% of strokes in Asia2 and 8 ...

Endovascular Treatment of Intracranial Atherosclerotic Stenosis [PDF]

RöFo - Fortschritte auf dem Gebiet der Röntgenstrahlen und der bildgebenden Verfahren, 2019
Background Intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis (ICAS) causes 5 – 10 % of all ischemic strokes in the European population. Indication for endovascular treatment is a special challenge and the selection of material as well as interventional techniques essentially differs from the treatment of extracranial stenoses.

Importance of lipid ratios for predicting intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis [PDF]

Lipids in Health and Disease, 2020
Abstract Background: This study aims to investigate the association of lipid ratios with intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis (ICAS) in a Chinese population.Methods: This cross-sectional study included 658 consecutive patients with ischemic stroke. Intracranial and extracranial arteries were evaluated for atherosclerotic stenosis using digital
