A numerical study of the effect of varied blood pressure on the stability of carotid atherosclerotic plaque
BACKGROUND Blood pressure (BP) is associated with early atherosclerosis and plaque rupture because the BP variability can significantly affect the blood flow velocity and shear stress over the plaque. However, the mechanical response of BP variability to the plaque remains unclear. Therefore, we investigated the correlation between different maximum systolic blood pressure (SBP) and the stress ...
متن کاملMRI-based biomechanical parameters for carotid artery plaque vulnerability assessment.
Carotid atherosclerotic plaques are a major cause of ischaemic stroke. The biomechanical environment to which the arterial wall and plaque is subjected to plays an important role in the initiation, progression and rupture of carotid plaques. MRI is frequently used to characterize the morphology of a carotid plaque, but new developments in MRI enable more functional assessment of carotid plaques...
متن کاملThin-cap fibroatheroma rupture is associated with a fine interplay of shear and wall stress.
In this review, we summarized the effect of mechanical factors (shear and wall stress) on thin-cap fibroatheroma formation and rupture. To make this review understandable for a biology-oriented audience, we start with detailed definitions of relevant mechanical metrics. We then describe how biomechanics has supported histopathologic efforts to understand the basis of plaque rupture. In addition...
متن کامل3D MRI-based anisotropic FSI models with cyclic bending for human coronary atherosclerotic plaque mechanical analysis.
Heart attack and stroke are often caused by atherosclerotic plaque rupture, which happens without warning most of the time. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based atherosclerotic plaque models with fluid-structure interactions (FSIs) have been introduced to perform flow and stress/strain analysis and identify possible mechanical and morphological indices for accurate plaque vulnerability assess...
متن کاملDistribution of circumferential stress in ruptured and stable atherosclerotic lesions. A structural analysis with histopathological correlation.
BACKGROUND Although rupture of an atherosclerotic plaque is considered to be the cause of most acute coronary syndromes, the mechanism of plaque rupture is controversial. METHODS AND RESULTS To test the hypothesis that plaque rupture occurs at sites of high circumferential stress in the diseased vessel, the distribution of stress was analyzed in 24 coronary artery lesions. Histological specim...
