Association between serum uric acid and carotid disease in patients with atherosclerotic acute ischemic stroke.
Conclusion Our study supports the hypotheses that serum uric acid levels have different roles in the case of ischemic stroke. Its effects on the vascular wall contribute to the development of atherosclerosis and carotid disease. PMID: 30205779 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Risk index for predicting perioperative stroke, myocardial infarction, or death risk in asymptomatic patients undergoing carotid endarterectomy
Objective: The latest guidelines recommend performance of carotid endarterectomy (CEA) on asymptomatic patients with high-grade carotid stenosis, only if the combined perioperative stroke, myocardial infarction (MI), or death risk is ≤3%. Our objective was to develop and validate a risk index to estimate the combined risk of perioperative stroke, MI, or death in asymptomatic patients undergoing elective CEA.Methods: Asymptomatic patients who underwent an elective CEA (n = 17,692) were identified from the 2005-2010 National Surgical Quality Improvement Program, a multicenter, prospective database. Multivariable logistic ...
