Need for Procedural Details in Detection of Periodontopathic Bacterial DNA in the Atheromatous Plaque by PCR
We read with interest the recent paper published by Ishihara and colleagues (1) in which the authors detected the presence of DNA from periodontopathic bacteria in stenotic artery plaques and in samples obtained from periodontal pockets. This group has already published a report describing the detection of Treponema denticola in atherosclerotic lesions by using both PCR and polyclonal serum-bas...

متن کاملEvaluating the effect of stenosis increase and pulsatile blood pressure on effective stress distribution in viscoelastic finite element model based on carotid artery ultrasound images
The aim of this study is to evaluate the changes of effective stress distribution in plaque by progressing to the stenosis throat and to assess the pulsatile pulse pressure effect on effective stress of a viscoelastic finite-element model of carotid arteries having less and more than 50% stenosis. In-vivo geometries of the arteries were reconstructed using consecutive transverse ultrasound imag...
متن کاملSystemic atherosclerotic plaque vulnerability in patients with Coronary Artery Disease with a single Whole Body [FDG]PET-CT scan
Objective(s): Cardiovascular disease is a leading cause of morbimortality with over half cardiovascular events occurring in the asymptomatic population by traditional risk stratification. This preliminary study aimed to evaluate systemic plaque vulnerability in patients with prior Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) with a single Whole Body [FDG] PET-CT scan in terms of plaq...
متن کاملComputed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging for noninvasive coronary angiography and plaque imaging: current and potential future concepts.
Atherothrombosis is a systemic disease of the vessel wall that causes distinct clinical manifestations, depending on the affected circulatory bed and the characteristics of the individual lesions.1 These lesions may be quite heterogeneous.1 Thus, the clinical manifestations of atherothrombosis of the coronary arteries, of the arteries supplying the central nervous system, of the aorta, and of t...
