Hyperhomocysteinemia and recurrent carotid stenosis
BMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2008 Background Hyperhomocysteinemia has been identified as a potential risk for atherosclerotic disease in epidemiologic studies. This study investigates the impact of elevated serum homocysteine on restenosis after carotid endarterectomy (CEA). Methods In a

Use of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Imaging Angiography to Follow-Up Arterial Remodeling in an Animal Model [PDF]
, 1998 Appropriately sized arteries in small animals may be possible models for studying the remodeling process as occurs after arterial balloon injury in humans. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is able to noninvasively image tissue in vivo.

Bindarit inhibits human coronary artery smooth muscle cell proliferation, migration and phenotypic switching [PDF]
, 2012 Bindarit, a selective inhibitor of monocyte chemotactic proteins (MCPs) synthesis, reduces neointimal formation in animal models of vascular injury and recently has been shown to inhibit in-stent late loss in a placebo-controlled phase II clinical trial.

Restenosis of Drug-Eluting Stents.
Circulation. Cardiovascular Interventions, 2019 Despite on-going evolution and iteration of drug-eluting stent (DES) technology, the prevalence of in-stent restenosis (ISR) remains relatively unchanged, encompassing ≈10% of percutaneous coronary interventions.

Changes of Serum CTRP12 in Patients With Coronary Artery Disease After the Treatment of Percutaneous Coronary Intervention and Its Relationship With In-Stent Restenosis. [PDF]
Clin CardiolSerum CTRP12 levels are significantly lower in CAD patients, and significant correlate to disease severity and dynamic changes after PCI. They may serve as a potential biomarker for diagnosing CAD and predicting ISR occurrence. ABSTRACT Background C1q/tumor necrosis factor‐related protein 12 (CTRP12) plays a protective role in coronary artery disease ...

In Stent Restenosis Predictors after Carotid Artery Stenting
Stroke Research and Treatment, 2010 Purpose. The long-term efficacy of carotid artery stenting is debated. Predictors of stent restenosis are not fully investigated. Our aim was to assess the incidence of long term restenosis after CAS and to identify some predictors of restenosis. Methods.
