Potential Role of Sirtuins as Epigenetic Biomarkers of the Patient With Atherosclerosis or Calcific Aortic Stenosis
The project aims to shed light on the role of Sirtuins, enzymes belonging to the third class of histone deacetylases (class III) involved in epigenetic modifications (deacetylation), focusing mainly on Sirtuin 6 (SIRT6), as a regulator of atherosclerosis and severe aortic valve stenosis through molecular-based and epigenetic studies in human …
Morphology of Advanced Symptomatic Cerebral Plaques With High Embolic Potential
The study is to attain early recognition of the unstable plaques which have an imminent embolic risk in patients with intracranial atherosclerotic disease (IAD).
Cognitive Decline and Underlying Mechanisms in Symptomatic Intracranial Artery Stenosis Patients: A Cohort Study
The purpose of this study is to explore the mechanism of cognitive impairment in patients with symptomatic intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis (ICAS), and further plans to explore the impact of different treatment options on cognitive function in symptomatic ICAS patients.
Shear Wave Elastography for Carotid Atherosclerotic Plaques
The goal of this prospective diagnostic accuracy cohort study is to compare the accuracy of carotid atherosclerotic plaques stiffness assessed by shear wave elastography (SWE) with greyscale median values (GSM), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and histopathological findings in patients with carotid atherosclerotic plaques causing stenosis above 50%, symptomatic or not. …
Optical Coherence Tomography for Intracranial Atherosclerotic Stenosis
To evaluate the clinical significance of optical coherence tomography (OCT) in interventional treatment of intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis (ICAS).
Plaque Characteristics Predict Recurrent Stroke in MCA Stroke Patients
The epidemiology of TOAST classification in Asian patients seems to differ due to the higher rates of large-artery atherosclerosis. The complex pathology of atherosclerosis could lead to recurrent stroke, including shear stress on the endothelium, disturbance of the flow, occlusion at the origin of the perforating artery, and other complications …
The Mechanical Characterisation of Human Saphenous and Popliteal Vein
Non-interventional study aiming to ascertain the mechanical properties of human saphenous and popliteal vein tissue.
MRI Guided Management of Occlusive Peripheral Arterial Disease
The goal of this observational study is to identify which plaque lesions in patients with peripheral arterial disease are impenetrable and to determine which devices minimize vessel wall injury. Patients undergoing intervention will have an MRI scan prior to their planned percutaneous vascular intervention to assess the plaque and predict …
Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor Associated Cardiovascular Adverse Events in Patients With Cancer
Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) have revolutionized cancer treatment and are now approved for various types of cancer. The most common side effects of ICI are immune-related adverse events which can affect any organ or system in the body. Recently, concerns have also risen about cardiovascular effects of ICI. Retrospective studies …
Prediction of Cerebral Hyperperfusion Syndrome After Carotid Revascularization Using Deep Learning
Cerebral hyperperfusion syndrome (CHS) was initially described as a clinical syndrome following carotid endarterectomy (CEA), but it may present in both CEA and carotid artery stenting, and is characterised by throbbing ipsilateral frontotemporal or periorbital headache, and sometimes diffuse headache, eye and face pain, vomiting, confusion, macular oedema, and visual …
