Duplex ultrasound findings and clinical outcomes of carotid restenosis after carotid endarterectomy.
This study aimed to describe the duplex ultrasound (DUS) findings associated with carotid restenosis after carotid endarterectomy (CEA) and to determine whether carotid restenosis is associated with the clinical outcomes of CEA.

Pathogenetic mechanism of stented coronary arteries restenosis and the role of vasculoendothelial growth factor A [PDF]
The contemporary issue of in-stent restenosis is reviewed in the article. The widespread use of interventional technologies for the treatment of acute and chronic forms of ischemic heart disease led to the appearance of the problem of coronary artery ...

In the past decade, tremendous progress has been made in reducing the incidence of restenosis with the advent of the drug-eluting stent (DES). With “plain old balloon angioplasty,” rates of acute and chronic vessel occlusion were unacceptably high at ≈30% to 60%, secondary to acute and chronic recoil and constrictive remodeling.

Prediction of Long-Term Restenosis After Carotid Endarterectomy Using Quantitative Magnetic Resonance Angiography. [PDF]
Background To detect restenosis after carotid endarterectomy (CEA), long-term monitoring is required. However, non-selective follow-up is controversial and can be limited by costs and logistical considerations.

Targeted delivery for treatments for restenosis and vein graft disease [PDF]
Surgery to restore blood flow in arteries blocked by atherosclerotic plaque is a common treatment in cardiovascular disease. Longtermcomplications of surgical treatment are vein graft disease and restenosis, a renarrowing of the blood vessel after ...

Angiotensin-converting enzyme insertion/deletion polymorphism does not influence the restenosis rate after coronary stent implantation [PDF]
Background. Experimental studies have shown an activation of the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) system as a response to endothelial injury. Recent publications have elucidated the hypothesis that the ACE gene polymorphism may influence the level of ...

Endothelin and restenosis [PDF]
Time for primary review 31 days Percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTCA) was first introduced into the therapy of patients with coronary artery stenosis in the late seventies [1]. In the two decades since, this method has become standard therapy for patients suffering from all forms of coronary artery disease.

Long-term risk of carotid restenosis in patients randomly assigned to endovascular treatment or endarterectomy in the Carotid and Vertebral Artery Transluminal Angioplasty Study (CAVATAS): long-term follow-up of a randomised trial [PDF]
Background In the Carotid and Vertebral Artery Transluminal Angioplasty Study (CAVATAS), early recurrent carotid stenosis was more common in patients assigned to endovascular treatment than it was in patients assigned to endarterectomy (CEA), raising ...

Pathogen burden, inflammation, proliferation and apoptosis in human in-stent restenosis - Tissue characteristics compared to primary atherosclerosis [PDF]
Pathogenic events leading to in-stent restenosis (ISR) are still incompletely understood. Among others, inflammation, immune reactions, deregulated cell death and growth have been suggested. Therefore, atherectomy probes from 21 patients with symptomatic

BackgroundIncreasing evidence suggests that insulin resistance is linked to cardiovascular disease and atherosclerosis. The triglyceride–glucose (TyG) index has proven to be a convincing marker to quantitatively evaluate insulin resistance.
