Targeted Plasma Proteomics to Predict the Development of Carotid Plaques
CONCLUSIONS: A new set of circulating proteins have been identified that may be considered as markers of preclinical atherosclerosis development. The difference of the protein identified to predict SCA versus IMT progression may reflect different etiological factors.PMID:35775410 | DOI:10.1161/STROKEAHA.122.038887

Association of metabolic syndrome with carotid atherosclerosis in low-income Chinese individuals: A population-based study
CONCLUSIONS: Among individuals aged 45 years or more, we confirmed MetS and its components were associated with carotid atherosclerosis in a low-income population of northern China. The presence of MetS and a higher number of MetS components exacerbated the risk of carotid atherosclerosis; among the five MetS components, high blood pressure was associated with the greatest risk. Targeted atherosclerosis prevention and intervention should include identification and treatment of MetS, especially high blood pressure.PMID:36061552 | PMC:PMC9437543 | DOI:10.3389/fcvm.2022.943281

“Optic nerve sheath diameter detects intracranial hypertension in acute malignant middle cerebral artery infarction”
We congratulate the authors for their idea to utilize ultrasound in the decision making to detect the presence of intracranial hypertension which requires the need of decompressive craniectomy surgery in patients with middle cerebral artery infarction1, but we would like to make some comments.

The Rationalisation of Intra-Operative Imaging During Cardiac Surgery: A Systematic Review
CONCLUSION: Current data have shown EUS to have superiority over manual palpation and transoesophageal echocardiography in the prevention of CVAs following cardiac surgery. Yet, EUS has not been implemented as a routine standard of care. Extensive adoption of EUS in clinical practice is warranted to aid large, randomised trials before making prospective conclusions on the efficacy of this screening method.PMID:36870922 | DOI:10.1016/j.hlc.2023.01.016

Prevalence and Risk Factors of Carotid Artery Stenosis (CAS) Among Cardiac Surgery Patients
CONCLUSION: This study shows a high prevalence of CAS among cardiac surgery patients. In addition, older age, diabetes mellitus, and hypertension were found to be major risk factors for CAS. Gender and weight status were not associated with CAS. Preoperative carotid duplex scan is a useful exam to identify CAS among cardiac surgery patients and, therefore, to predict and reduce postoperative neurological complications.PMID:37200653 | PMC:PMC10186855 | DOI:10.7759/cureus.37634

Association of visceral adiposity index with asymptomatic intracranial arterial stenosis: a population-based study in Shandong, China
CONCLUSIONS: The possible correlation between VAI and aICAS was found to be positive for the first time among Chinese rural residents over 40 years old. A higher VAI was found to be significantly associated with aICAS among the participants who were underweight or normal weight, and these results may provide additional risk stratification information for aICAS.PMID:37198613 | DOI:10.1186/s12944-023-01831-1

Influence of accelerated arterial ageing in growth restricted cohorts on adult-onset cardiovascular diseases
Am J Physiol Heart Circ Physiol. 2023 May 19. doi: 10.1152/ajpheart.00134.2023. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTEpidemiologists have long documented higher risk of adult-onset cardiovascular diseases (CVD) such as stroke, hypertension and coronary artery disease) and mortality from circulatory causes in low birth weight cohorts (poor in utero substrate supply). Utero-placental insufficiency and in utero hypoxemic state induced alterations in arterial structure and compliance are important initiating factors for adult-onset hypertension. The mechanistic links between fetal growth restriction and CVD include decreased arterial...

Risk Factors of Asymptomatic Carotid Artery Disease in Geriatric Evaluated Using Carotid Intima-Media Thickness (IMT) Measurement, the First Indonesian Population Study
Int J Angiol. 2022 Jun 28;32(2):95-99. doi: 10.1055/s-0042-1750040. eCollection 2023 Jun.ABSTRACTCarotid artery disease in geriatric is one of the important etiologies of stroke, which topped the cause of mortality in Indonesia. Specific prevention should be done as early as asymptomatic disease occurred. Initial assessment can be performed using ultrasound by measuring the intima-media thickness (IMT) of carotid artery, which can evaluate earlier progression of the atherosclerosis process. Unfortunately, we do not have risk factors categorization that show us which geriatric population fall under high-risk stratification ...
