Association between the Gensini Score and Carotid Artery Stenosis
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between the extent of coronary artery disease assessed by the Gensini score and/or the SYNTAX score and the significant carotid stenosis in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). SUBJECTS AND METHODS A total of 225 patients who had carotid doppler ultrasonography prior to CABG were included re...
متن کاملAssociation between coronary artery calcium score and carotid atherosclerotic disease.
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the association between coronary calcification and carotid atherosclerosis. Briefly, 123 patients with suspected coronary artery disease were recruited. The coronary artery calcium score (CACS) was measured and multi‑contrast carotid magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was performed. Parameters of the carotid morphological measurements were determined a...
متن کاملAssociation between plasma homocysteine concentrations and extracranial carotid-artery stenosis.
BACKGROUND Epidemiologic studies have identified hyperhomocysteinemia as a possible risk factor for atherosclerosis. We determined the risk of carotid-artery atherosclerosis in relation to both plasma homocysteine concentrations and nutritional determinants of hyperhomocysteinemia. METHODS We performed a cross-sectional study of 1041 elderly subjects (418 men and 623 women; age range, 67 to 9...
متن کاملAssociation of abdominal aortic aneurysm and carotid artery stenosis.
1527 and in our study hypothermia clearly delayed increased intracra-nial pressure and thereby prolonged a higher cerebral perfusion pressure (/ > =.O1). We propose that even in a well-controlled experimental study, and despite prolonged postinsult control of extracerebral variables , 2 with an adequately severe cerebral focal ischemic insult small animal-to-animal variations will lead to the i...
متن کاملExtracranial carotid artery stenosis.
BACKGROUND Carotid endarterectomy is the most common surgical procedure used to treat stenosis of the extracranial precerebral carotid artery. Data from several randomized controlled trials are available to help guide its use in specific patient subgroups. Carotid angioplasty with stenting is also being performed, and clinical trials comparing this procedure with carotid endarterectomy are in p...
