Non-HDL-C/HDL-C ratio is associated with carotid plaque stability in general population: A cross-sectional study

Frontiers in Neurology, 2022
BackgroundCarotid atherosclerosis, especially the rupture of unstable plaques, plays an important role in the development of stroke. A novel lipid ratio, the non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C)/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C)

Triglyceride-Glucose Index Is Related to Carotid Plaque and Its Stability in Nondiabetic Adults: A Cross-Sectional Study

Frontiers in Neurology, 2022
BackgroundCarotid plaque plays an important role in the development of stroke. The triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index is a reliable alternative marker of insulin resistance.

The unstable carotid plaque. [PDF]

Stroke, 1989
However, neurologic outcome correlated highly with acute local changes in large, severely stenosing, unstable plaques, and a correlation also exists with progression or regression, possibly reflecting plaque instability.

Association between carotid plaque vulnerability and high mobility group box-1 serum levels in a diabetic population

Cardiovascular Diabetology, 2021
Background Carotid atherosclerosis represents one of the complications of diabetes mellitus. In particular, plaque instability contributes to disease progression and stroke incidence.

The analysis of the connection between plaque morphology of the asymptomatic carotid stenosis and ischemic brain lesions [PDF]

Vojnosanitetski Pregled, 2013
Background/Aim. A certain percentage of patients with asymptomatic carotid stenosis have an unstable carotid plaque. For these patients it is possible to register by modern imaging methods the existence of lesions of the brain parenchyma - the silent ...

YKL-40 Is Associated With Ultrasound-Determined Carotid Atherosclerotic Plaque Instability

Frontiers in Neurology, 2021
Background and Aims: YKL-40, an inflammatory biomarker, has been reported to be involved in the process and progression of atherosclerosis. Several studies have investigated the association between YKL-40 and plaque and suggested YKL-40 might be a ...
