Regression of femoral atherosclerosis.
T he scientific community has by now generally accepted that human atherosclerosis development can be influenced by therapeutic means. This insight has mainly been based on studies of the coronary arteries, the conclusive one being the Cholesterol Lowering Atherosclerosis Study (CLAS)1 but supported by studies like the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) study,2 the Helsinki Coron...
متن کاملAtherosclerosis: inhibition of regression as therapeutic possibilities.
Therapeutic modulation of the atherosclerotic process in human coronary arteries is now being attempted. A major aim of such attempts has been regression-that is, a diminution in the volume of atherosclerotic tissue. Many patients would, however, settle for stabilisation of their disease without further progression, and with a reduced risk of acute ischaemic events in the future. These may be m...
متن کاملRegression of Coronary Atherosclerosis with Medical Therapy.
A 42-year-old man with hyperlipidemia and a family history of coronary artery disease presented with a 4-month history of intermittent exertional chest pain. Myocardial perfusion imaging performed during exercise showed moderate ischemia in the distribution of the left circumflex coronary artery (Panel A, arrow). Coronary computed tomographic angiography (CTA) revealed a large amount of atheros...
متن کاملFunctional improvement precedes structural regression of atherosclerosis.
BACKGROUND Vasoconstrictor responses to serotonin are augmented in monkeys with diet-induced atherosclerosis and improve after 18 months of normal diet. We tested the hypothesis that functional improvement may occur early during regression, before evidence of structural improvement. METHODS AND RESULTS Responses of the iliac artery to serotonin were measured by quantitative angiography and a ...
متن کاملStudy on Regression of Atherosclerosis in Rabbits.
The question of whether arteriosclerotic lesions regress or not is of fundamental importance in relation to the therapeutic problem of the human arteriosclerosis. The atherosclerotic plaque is, within limits, a reversible lesion. After cessation of cholesterol feeding in rabbits, there is a gradual regression of the cholesterol-induced lesions. Anitschikow'> investigated on this problem in deta...
