Differences and similarities between spontaneous dissections of the internal carotid artery and the vertebral artery.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE To compare potential risk factors, clinical symptoms, diagnostic delay, and 3-month outcome between spontaneous internal carotid artery dissection (sICAD) and spontaneous vertebral artery dissection (sVAD). METHODS We compared patients with sICAD (n=668) and sVAD (n=302) treated in 3 university hospitals. RESULTS Patients with sICAD were older (46.3 ± 9.6 versus 42.0 ...

In addition to traditional risk factors for cardiovascular disease, nowadays, accumulating evidence indicates that a variety of infections contribute to pathogenesis of atherosclerosis, (We investigated whether Helicobacter pylori infection is related to Prevalence of coronar...
متن کاملCarotid artery thrombosis and cerebral infarction after multiple traumas
Carotid artery thrombosis and concomitant brain infarction after blunt trauma are rare conditions. We report a 34-year-old woman with multiple traumas due to pedestrian car accident. At the time of initial visiting, she was somnolent and her Glasgow coma scale (GCS) score was 14. Initial vital signs (V/S) and brain computed tomography (CT) scan were normal.

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 کاملThe Interrelation between carotid, femoral and coronary artery disease.
obesity is not a health risk as long as traditional coronary atherosclerotic risk factors are normal. Two other points concerning obesity deserve mention. First, not all obesity confers the same degree of abnormality in coronary heart disease risk factors. The patient with abdominal obesity (the ‘apple’ form of obesity often associated with males) is linked to insulin resistance and hence signi...
