Renal Dysfunction Is Associated with Middle Cerebral Artery Pulsatility Index and Total Burden of Cerebral Small Vessel Disease
Conclusions: Renal dysfunction is independently associated with a high PI of MCA. Renal dysfunction leads to systemic arterial stiffness including stiffness in cerebral arteries, thus increasing the burden of cSVD. Therefore, noninvasive screening for high PI by TCD in kidney failure patients might be helpful.Cerebrovasc Dis

Mildly Increased Renin Expression in the Absence of Kidney Injury in the Murine Transverse Aortic Constriction Model
Cardiorenal syndrome type 2 is characterized by kidney failure as a consequence of heart failure that affects >50% of heart failure patients. Murine transverse aortic constriction (TAC) is a heart failure model, where pressure overload is induced on the heart without any systemic hypertension or its consequences. Whether renal function is altered in this model is debated, and if so, at which time post-TAC renal dysfunction starts to contribute to worsening of cardiac function. We therefore studied the effects of progressive heart failure development on kidney function in the absence of chronically elevated systemic bloo...

Impact of H-Type Hypertension on Intraplaque Neovascularization Assessed by Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasound
CONCLUSION: H-type hypertension is expressly connected with the degree of plaque enhancement and may facilitate plaque vulnerability. Our findings may offer a new insight for treating vulnerable plaque, lowering blood pressure, and lowering homocysteine equally crucial.PMID:33827997 | DOI:10.5551/jat.61275

Association of Carotid Plaques and Common Carotid Intima-media Thickness with Modifiable Cardiovascular Risk Factors
Most interventions for the treatment or prevention of atherosclerosis are focused in modifiable traditional cardiovascular risk factors (CVRF), such as smoking, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and hypercholesterolemia.1 However, there are numerous approaches for the detection and measurement of subclinical atherosclerosis. The B-mode ultrasound examination is arguably one of the best methods for detecting early stages of atherosclerotic disease in the carotid arteries.2 Assessments of atherosclerosis using carotid ultrasound imaging include carotid intima-media thickness (IMT) measurement and plaque detection.

Using Ultrasound and Inflammation to Improve Prediction of Ischemic Stroke: A Secondary Analysis of the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis
Conclusions: In a multiethnic cohort of patients without cerebrovascular disease at baseline, we found that CD, CS, and IL-6 helped predict the occurrence of primary ischemic stroke. Future research could evaluate if these basic ultrasound and serum measurements have implications for primary prevention efforts or clinical trial inclusion criteria.Cerebrovasc Dis Extra 2021;11:37 –43
