Association between high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) levels and the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) and/or microembolic signals after carotid angioplasty and stenting

Background: To evaluate the association between pre/post-procedural high sensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) level and hs-CRP difference, and the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) or new diffusion-weighted MRI lesions after carotid angioplasty and stenting (CAS). Methods: In this study, conducted in 2016 in Shiraz (Iran), patients who underwent diagnostic angiography and CAS...

Leukocyte count predicts microembolic Doppler signals during carotid stenting: a link between inflammation and embolization.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Protected stenting has emerged as a safe and effective alternative to endarterectomy for the treatment of carotid stenosis in patients at high operative risk. Distal microembolization occurs invariably during carotid stenting. Little is known about the relationship between systemic inflammation and embolization during carotid stenting. METHODS We examined 43 consecutive...

Haemodynamic depression during carotid angioplasty and stenting

Haemodynamic depression is commonly defined as a change in arterial pressure (hypotension with systolic pressure values of less than 90 mmHg) and heart rate (bradycardia, heart rate of less than 60 beats per minute). Carotid angioplasty and stenting (CAS) can result in many complications, particularly in the perioperative period. Apart from the most serious complications, such as stroke and tem...

Antiplatelet Therapy in Carotid Artery Stenting and Carotid Endarterectomy in the Asymptomatic Carotid Surgery Trial-2.

OBJECTIVE Strokes are infrequent but potentially serious complications following carotid intervention, but antiplatelet therapy can reduce these risks. There are currently no specific guidelines on dose or duration of peri-procedural antiplatelet treatment for patients undergoing carotid intervention. Within the ongoing Asymptomatic Carotid Surgery Trial-2 (ACST-2), this study aimed at assessin...

Carotid angioplasty and stenting.

Carotid Angioplasty and Stenting To the Editor: We read with interest the article by Qureshi,1 about carotid angioplasty and stenting (CAS) after the EVA3S trial.2 The author considers that the results of EVA3S are somewhat contradictory to the existing data derived from other studies. To reach this conclusion, Dr Qureshi put together studies that are hardly comparable because of their design (...
