Objective: This meta-analysis aims to compare the relationship between phenotypic manifestation of coronary and carotid atherosclerosis using available imaging techniques. Approach Results: We searched all electronic databases until October 2020 for studies which reported atherosclerosis. The primary end point was correlation intima-media thickness (CIMT) plaque features (calcification lipid-ri...
Introduction Whether atherosclerosis is increased or not in Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF) is a much debated issue. Carotid artery intima media thickness (IMT) a surrogate marker for subclinical atherosclerosis is found to be increased in a number of studies [1-5], however this contrasts with the lack of increased frequency of atherosclerotic plaques[1-5]. Also, population surveys do not in...
BACKGROUND The object of this study was to investigate the potential role of FGF23 on plaque stability in type 2 diabetic patients with internal carotid artery stenosis. METHODS In this retrospective observational study, we analyzed FGF23 serum level in 361 type 2 diabetic patients with internal carotid artery stenosis undergoing carotid endarterectomy and in 598 diabetic controls without car...
OBJECTIVE Therapies for chronic kidney disease have changed greatly over the last decade. The aim of this study was to examine the changes in the clinical characteristics and carotid atherosclerosis of patients with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) over the last 9 years. METHODS A cross-sectional study of 150 consecutive patients with ESKD who had initiated maintenance dialysis between January...
Objective—Regulatory T (Treg) cells play a protective role in experimental atherosclerosis. In the present study, we investigated whether the levels of circulating Treg cells relate to the degree of atherosclerosis in carotid and coronary arteries. Methods and Results—We studied 2 distinct populations: (1) 113 subjects, selected from a free-living population (carotid study), in which we measure...
OBJECTIVE Soluble CD40 ligand (sCD40L) has been suggested as a key mediator between inflammation and atherosclerosis, and the CD40-CD40L interaction has a role in atherosclerotic lesion progression. We evaluated if platelet released serum sCD40L and sCD40 levels differ between patients with early onset occlusive carotid artery disease and age-matched controls. METHODS sCD40L and sCD40 levels ...
BACKGROUND Carotid artery atherosclerosis is an important risk factor for stroke. As such, quantitative imaging of carotid artery calcification, as a proxy of atherosclerosis, has become a cornerstone of current stroke research. Yet, population-based data comparing the computed tomography (CT) and cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) for the detection and quantification of calcification rema...
OBJECTIVES To determine if nephrolithiasis-associated atherosclerosis has pediatric origins and to consider possible association between kidney stones and atherosclerosis-related proteins. STUDY DESIGN We matched children aged 12-17 years with kidney stones and without kidney stones. Carotid artery intima-media thickness (cIMT) was measured by ultrasound. Participants' urine was investigated ...
