Relationship Between Carotid Intraplaque Neovascularization and Immune–Inflammatory Biomarkers with Coronary Stenosis [PDF]
Background: Intraplaque neovascularization (IPN) correlates significantly with plaque vulnerability and can be detected using Angio PLanewave UltraSensitive imaging technology (Angio PL.U.S.; AP). Several immune–inflammatory biomarkers

Mathematical modeling of intraplaque neovascularization and hemorrhage in a carotid atherosclerotic plaque [PDF]
Background Growing experimental evidence has identified neovascularization from the adventitial vasa vasorum and induced intraplaque hemorrhage (IPH) as critical indicators during the development of vulnerable atherosclerotic plaques.

Semaphorin 7A Promotes VEGFA/VEGFR2-Mediated Angiogenesis and Intraplaque Neovascularization in ApoE-/- Mice [PDF]
Excessive neovascularization of atherosclerotic lesions increases plaque vulnerability and the susceptibility to rupture. Semaphorin 7A (Sema7A), a semaphorin family member, was recently reported to promote atherosclerotic plaque formation by mediating d-

Carotid Intraplaque Neovascularization and Future Vascular Events in Patients With Asymptomatic Carotid Stenosis [PDF]
Objective: Intraplaque neovascularization is a marker of plaque vulnerability and is used to predict the risk of future vascular events in patients with symptomatic carotid stenosis; however, its association with asymptomatic carotid stenosis has not ...

Relationship Between Serum Lipid Profiles and Carotid Intraplaque Neovascularization in a High–Stroke‐Risk Population: A Cross‐Sectional Study in China [PDF]
Background Evidence of the association between serum lipid profiles and intraplaque neovascularization (IPN) is still limited. We aimed to study the value of a novel Doppler method, superb microvascular imaging, in correlating serum lipid profiles and ...

The association of lipoprotein(a) and intraplaque neovascularization in patients with carotid stenosis: a retrospective study. [PDF]
Abstract Background Lipoprotein(a) is genetically determined and increasingly recognized as a major risk factor for arteriosclerotic cardiovascular disease. We examined whether plasma lipoprotein(a) concentrations were associated with intraplaque neovascularization (IPN) grade in patients with carotid stenosis and in ...

Carotid intraplaque neovascularization increases the risk of white matter hyperintensity progression: a prospective cohort study [PDF]
Background and purposeWhite matter hyperintensities (WMH) are a common imaging manifestation of cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD). While carotid intraplaque neovascularization (IPN) has been implicated in WMH burden, its longitudinal impact on WMH ...
