The relation between atherosclerosis plaque composition and plaque rupture [PDF]
Journal of Medical Signals and Sensors, 2020 Background: Intima, media, and adventitia are three layers of arteries. They have different structures and different mechanical properties. Damage to intima layer of arteries leads to an inflammatory response, which is usually the reason for ...

Study on the association between neovascularization of culprit lesions and plaque rupture in patients with acute myocardial infarction [PDF]
BMC Cardiovascular DisordersBackground Neovascularization (NV) within plaques is widely recognized as an important indicator of plaque vulnerability; however, the relationship between NV and plaque rupture in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) has not been extensively ...

Plaque Structural Stress: Detection, Determinants and Role in Atherosclerotic Plaque Rupture and Progression [PDF]
Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022 Atherosclerosis remains a major cause of death worldwide, with most myocardial infarctions being due to rupture or erosion of coronary plaques. Although several imaging modalities can identify features that confer risk, major adverse cardiovascular event

Coronary plaque composition influences biomechanical stress and predicts plaque rupture in a morpho-mechanic OCT analysis [PDF]
eLife, 2021 Plaque rupture occurs if stress within coronary lesions exceeds the protection exerted by the fibrous cap overlying the necrotic lipid core. However, very little is known about the biomechanical stress exerting this disrupting force.

Studying the Factors of Human Carotid Atherosclerotic Plaque Rupture, by Calculating Stress/Strain in the Plaque, Based on CEUS Images: A Numerical Study [PDF]
Frontiers in Neuroinformatics, 2020 Carotid plaque neovascularization is one of the major factors for the classification of vulnerable plaque, but the axial force effects of the pulsatile blood flow on the plaque with neovessel and intraplaque hemorrhage was unclear.
