Human internal carotid artery, and superficial femoral artery samples were obtained from ... 3.2 Calcification is accompanied by elevation of Piezo1 expression on HAoSMC 3.4 Activation of Piezo1 ...
Endovascular aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR ... The study identified that the calcification status of the common femoral artery and the use of dual antiplatelet therapy were significant predictors ...
Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) is currently the treatment of choice for thoracic aortic disease. In select cases, the TEVAR stent must occlude the left subclavian artery. This is usually ...
All had severe calcification of iliac arteries. Eight patients required a bypass from the thoracic aorta and two from the infrarenal level. Revascularization was successful in 10 patients.
Carotid artery calcification (CAC) is an important indicator of atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease, which can lead to serious health issues such as stroke. Detecting CAC early is crucial ...
Five hundred forty-four unselected patients were examined by a radiologist as to the presence or absence of coronary artery calcification. The overall prevalence of coronary calcification was 20% and ...
The left subclavian artery receives oxygenated blood from the aortic arch (the top portion of the largest artery in the body that carries blood away from the heart). The right subclavian artery ...
[11] The innominate, left carotid, and left subclavian arteries are reconstructed in separate end-to-end anastomoses by using a branched trifurcated graft, and the aortic reconstruction can be ...
Due to its unique properties, Lp(a) can vary in size and has no single, defined molecular weight. For this reason, there is a consensus in the scientific community that Lp(a) levels should be measured ...
The fibrocalcific ratio assessed the relative contributions of valve fibrosis and calcification. The fibrocalcific volume (sum of indexed non-calcific and calcific volumes) was compared with aortic ...
Coronary artery calcification isn’t often top of mind when thinking about serious health issues. But this condition – where crystals of calcium deposits build up in the arteries – is quietly ...
