Subclinical Carotid Artery Atherosclerosis and Cognitive Function: A Mini-Review

Frontiers in Neurology, 2021
Carotid artery atherosclerosis, the result of a multitude of vascular risk factors, is a promising marker for use in risk stratification. Recent evidence suggests that carotid artery atherosclerosis affects cognitive function and is an independent risk ...

Plaque Composition as a Predictor of Plaque Ulceration in Carotid Artery Atherosclerosis: The Plaque At RISK Study [PDF]

American Journal of Neuroradiology, 2020
Plaque ulceration is a marker of previous plaque rupture. We studied the association between atherosclerotic plaque composition at baseline and plaque ulceration at baseline and follow-up.We included symptomatic patients with a carotid stenosis of

MicroRNAs in the Atherosclerotic Plaque [PDF]

Clinical Chemistry, 2013
BACKGROUND MicroRNAs (miRNA, miR) are noncoding RNAs that regulate gene expression by hindering translation. miRNA expression profiles have been shown to differ in vivo and in vitro in many cellular processes associated with cardiovascular diseases (CVDs).

Echolucency of carotid plaques correlates with plaque cellularity [PDF]

European Journal of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery, 2003
To analyse the relationship between carotid plaque echolucency and cellularity.Carotid plaques (14 symptomatic and 16 asymptomatic) were snap frozen after endarterectomy and defined on the basis of their grey-scale-median (GSM), obtained from pre-operative high-definition ultrasonography, as either echolucent (or=32). DNA and total soluble protein were
