Reviewing imaging modalities for the assessment of plaque erosion [PDF]

open access: yesAtherosclerosis, 2021
Plaque rupture followed by intracoronary thrombus formation is recognized as the most common pathophysiological mechanism in acute coronary syndromes (ACS). The second most common underlying substrate for ACS is plaque erosion whose hallmark is thrombus formation without cap disruption. Invasive and non-invasive methods have emerged as a promising tool

The Association Between Plasma Hyaluronan Level and Plaque Types in ST-Segment–Elevation Myocardial Infarction Patients

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021
Background: The metabolism of hyaluronan (HA) is widely known to be involved in the process of acute coronary syndrome, but it is unknown how circulating HA levels change in ST-Segment–Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) patients and whether HA is ...

A Pad 4 Plaque Erosion [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation Research, 2018
Despite the development of new intervention strategies, acute coronary syndromes (ACS) are among the leading cause of global mortality. ACS is predominantly caused by plaque rupture, which is the consequence of inflammatory processes within the atherosclerotic plaque that contribute to expansion of the necrotic core and thinning of the fibrous cap ...
