Arterial Tortuosity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background and purposeArteriopathy is the leading cause of childhood arterial ischemic stroke. Mechanisms are poorly understood but may include inherent abnormalities of arterial structure. Extracranial dissection is associated with connective tissue disorders in adult stroke.

Comparison of soil tortuosity calculated by different methods [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Tortuosity is a parameter characterising the complexity of pore geometry in porous media for fluids and solutes to move through. It is loosely defined and has been calculated by different methods based on either the pore geometry or a special transport ...

Carotid Dolichoarteriopathy (Elongation) of the Carotid Arteries in Patients with Ischemic Stroke Anamnesis

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2023
Carotid artery elongation (ECA) is widespread in the asymptomatic population and among people with a history of ischemic stroke (IS). There are different points of view on the ways these changes contribute to brain ischemic damage pathogenesis. Materials

Arterial tortuosity syndrome [PDF]

open access: yesBMJ Case Reports, 2016
An infant exhibited weight faltering and failure to thrive after birth. She was born full term via an uncomplicated vaginal delivery to healthy, non-consanguineous parents. The mother received prenatal care and standard screening tests were reportedly normal throughout pregnancy. There was no family history of disease.
