Abdominal aortic aneurysm ultrasound screening in men with risk factors in Primary Care
CONCLUSIONS: The prevalence of aneurysms in our sample was 2.6%, which was lower than expected. The wide use of ultrasound and its progressive generalisation in the Primary Care setting should lead to a decrease in the number of undiagnosed AAA.PMID:34920344 | DOI:10.1016/j.aprim.2021.102234

Combining ultrasound with bio-indicators reveals progression of carotid stenosis
CONCLUSIONS: High-risk hs-CRP and hypoechoic plaque are independently associated with CAS progression. The progression of carotid stenosis is associated with a high risk of cerebrovascular events.PMID:34872279 | DOI:10.21037/apm-21-2666

Intracranial Large Artery Disease is Independently Associated with Poor Functional Outcome in a Cohort of Ethnic South Asian Ischemic Stroke Patients
Conclusions: The presence of ICLAD rendered poorer functional prognosis after stroke. These findings support the specific evaluation of the benefits of known acute stroke treatments such as thrombolysis, as well as investigation of potential novel strategies such as acute stenting.

CT-angiography and Doppler ultrasonography in the evaluation of carotid artery stenosis: a comparative study
ConclusionDoppler ultrasound when performed by an experienced sonographer can be used as a reliable first line modality for carotid stenosis grading and to categorize patients as medical and potentially surgical cases. CTA can be used as a confirmatory method for patients with borderline stenosis, for presurgical planning and for patients with suspected stenosis of the intracerebral circulation.

Association Between a Body Shape Index and Subclinical Carotid Atherosclerosis in Population Free of Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Diseases
CONCLUSIONS: ABSI, as a novel anthropometric indicator compared with traditional indices, was found to have a closer relationship with subclinical carotid atherosclerosis, even in populations free of hypertension, diabetes, and hyperlipidemia.PMID:34483222 | DOI:10.5551/jat.62988

Association of depressive symptoms with the progression of carotid intima-media thickness in a community-based cohort in Beijing, China
Conclusion
Depressive symptoms were independently associated with progression of mean cIMT in a community-based cohort in Beijing, China. Furthermore, this relationship was modified by drinking status.

Electrocardiographic abnormalities, preclinical carotid atherosclerosis andcardiovascular risk, in an apparently healthy real-world population: data from the project "No Stroke, No Infarction" of the rotary international - District 2110 "Sicily & amp; Malta"
CONCLUSIONS: A total of 302 (16.2%) subjects were at least at high risk for CV events according to the EUROSCORE, increasing to 681 (36,61% - p < 0.001) adding ACP. The combination of EUROSCORE with ECG may help to stratify CV risk in primary prevention. Carotid ultrasound furtherly increases the power of stratification of asymptomatic patients suitable for pharmacological treatment.PMID:34282855 | DOI:10.23736/S0392-9590.21.04637-X
