Statins and Clinical Outcomes in Patients With Low to Moderate Risk but With Non-obstructive Carotid Plaques: The SCOPE-CP Study
CONCLUSIONS: Benefit of statin therapy was likely to be limited in low to moderate risk patients with carotid plaques. These results could guide physicians in clinical decision-making regarding cardiovascular prevention.PMID:36478652 | PMC:PMC9742388 | DOI:10.4070/kcj.2022.0154

Remote Ischemic Conditioning Enhances Collateral Circulation Through Leptomeningeal Anastomosis and Diminishes Early Ischemic Lesions and Infarct Volume in Middle Cerebral Artery Occlusion
AbstractRemote ischemic conditioning (RIC) has attracted much attention as a protective strategy for the heart and brain, although the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. We hypothesized that RIC enhances collateral circulation during cerebral ischemia through endothelial function and mitigates both early ischemic change and final infarct volume. We tested the RIC and sham procedure 30 min after permanent middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) in male mice. Collateral circulation was examined during the procedure with 2D color-coded ultrasound imaging. Immediately after four cycles of RIC, early ischemic lesions on ma...

Diabetic retinopathy predicts cardiovascular disease independently of subclinical atherosclerosis in individuals with type 2 diabetes: A prospective cohort study
CONCLUSION: DR is a strong predictor of cardiovascular events in T2D individuals at primary CVD prevention, even after accounting for the presence of preclinical carotid atherosclerosis. These results may help to individualize CVD prevention strategies in T2D.PMID:36407461 | PMC:PMC9668891 | DOI:10.3389/fcvm.2022.945421

The Development of Neuroimaging Biomarkers for Cognitive Decline in Sickle Cell Disease
Sickle cell disease (SCD) is complicated by neurologic complications including vasculopathy, hemorrhagic or ischemic overt stroke, silent cerebral infarcts and cognitive dysfunction. Patients with SCD, even in the absence of vasculopathy or stroke, have experience cognitive dysfunction that progresses with age. Transcranial Doppler ultrasound and structural brain MRI are currently used for primary and secondary stroke prevention, but laboratory or imaging biomarkers do not currently exist that are specific to the risk of cognitive dysfunction in patients with SCD. Recent investigations have used advanced MR sequences asses...

Non-traditional lipid parameters as potential predictors of carotid plaque vulnerability and stenosis in patients with acute ischemic stroke
CONCLUSION: This study provides evidence that non-traditional lipid parameters (LP-C, non-HDL-C/HDL-C, non-HDL-C, CRI-I, and CRI-II) were potential predictors of carotid plaque vulnerability in patients with AIS. However, no significant correlation was observed between TG/HDL-C and AIP. RLP-C, non-HDL-C/HDL-C, non-HDL-C, TG/HDL-C, CRI-I, CRI-II, and AIP were closely related to the degree of carotid plaque stenosis. Non-traditional lipid parameters can be used as novel biomarkers of carotid plaque vulnerability and stenosis.PMID:36301362 | DOI:10.1007/s10072-022-06472-3

A narrative review on the application of high-intensity focused ultrasound for the treatment of occlusive and thrombotic arterial disease
CONCLUSIONS: In current preclinical and clinical data, the safety and efficacy of HIFU shows great promise in the treatment of atherosclerotic arterial disease. Future focused studies are warranted to guide the refinement of HIFU settings for more widespread adoption of this technology.PMID:36276806 | PMC:PMC9579503 | DOI:10.1016/j.jvssci.2022.08.001

Exploratory study to assess feasibility of intracerebral hemorrhage detection by point of care cranial ultrasound
ConclusionsOur exploratory analysis yielded preliminary data on use of point of care cranial ultrasound for ICH diagnosis to inform imaging techniques, cranial topography on B mode and sample size estimation for future studies to evaluate sensitivity and specificity of cranial POCUS in adult patients. This pilot study is limited by small sample size and over representation of ICH in the study. Cranial POCUS is feasible using POCUS machines and may have potential as a screening tool if validated in adequately powered studies.

Applicability and efficacy of ultrasound elastography in neurosurgery: a systematic review of the literature
CONCLUSIONS: This systematic review showed that, despite the lack of strong evidences, USE is a valid intraoperative tool, especially in oncological neurosurgery.PMID:36239425 | DOI:10.23736/S0390-5616.22.05866-0

Transcranial Doppler ultrasound: Clinical applications from neurological to cardiological setting
J Clin Ultrasound. 2022 Oct;50(8):1212-1223. doi: 10.1002/jcu.23344.ABSTRACTTranscranial Doppler (TCD) ultrasonography is a rapid, noninvasive, real-time, and low-cost imaging technique. It is performed with a low-frequency (2 MHz) probe in order to evaluate the cerebral blood flow (CBF) and its pathological alterations, through specific acoustic windows. In the recent years, TCD use has been expanded across many clinical settings. Actually, the most widespread indication for TCD exam is represented by the diagnosis of paradoxical embolism, due to patent foramen ovale, in young patients with cryptogenic stroke. In addition...
