A Comparative Study of Cohesive Zone Models for Predicting Delamination Behaviors of Arterial Wall [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 Arterial tissue delamination, manifested as the failure between arterial layers, is a critical process in the rupture of atherosclerotic plaque, leading to potential life-threatening clinical consequences. Numerous models have been used to characterize the arterial tissue delamination. Few has investigated the effect of Cohesive Zone Model (CZM) shapes

CT attenuation analysis of carotid intraplaque hemorrhage [PDF]
, 2018 Background and Purpose: Intraplaque hemorrhage is considered a leading parameter of carotid plaque vulnerability. Our purpose was to assess the CT characteristics of intraplaque hemorrhage with histopathologic correlation to identify features that allow ...

A mathematical model for smooth muscle cell phenotype switching in atherosclerotic plaque [PDF]
arXivSmooth muscle cells (SMCs) play a fundamental role in the development of atherosclerotic plaques. SMCs may ingest lipids in a similar way to monocyte-derived macrophages (MDMs) in the plaque. This can stimulate SMCs to undergo a phenotypic switch towards a macrophage-like phenotype.

Advanced ScienceAtherosclerotic plaque rupture mainly contributes to acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Insufficient repair of these plaques leads to thrombosis and subsequent ACS. Central to this process is the modulation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) phenotypes,

A Case of Blunt Trauma-induced ST-elevation Myocardial Infarction Sustained During a Prison Brawl. [PDF]
, 2020 Myocardial infarction (MI) is a serious and time-sensitive condition. MIs are typically seen in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) and are caused by the rupture of an atherosclerotic plaque due to factors contributing to plaque instability ...
