erosionBackground Familial hypercholesterolemia leads to premature ischemic heart disease and is often caused by mutations in the gene for the low-density lipoprotein receptor. Mutations in the apolipoprotein B gene, which encodes a ligand for this receptor, may also result in this phenotype, Methods...
In the rupture group, the core of the thrombus consisted dominantly of red thrombus evenly distributed along the entire culprit plaque. In the erosion group, it consisted dominantly of white thrombus with a focal distribution near the minimal lumen area zone. After stenting, the atherothrombotic ...
Plaque rupturePlaque erosionOptical coherence tomographyAims: Coronary vasospasm is associated with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and may persist during primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). We aimed to elucidate the incidence, morphological characteristics, and prognostic impact of residual ...
Pathophysiology of coronary thrombosis: Role of plaque rupture and plaque erosion 来自 万方 喜欢 0 阅读量: 70 作者: PK Shah 摘要: Coronary artery disease is the leading cause of death in much of the western world. Atherosclerotic plaques in the coronary arteries contribute to luminal obstruction ...
1 The larger the volume of atherosclerotic plaque, the higher the likelihood of plaque destabilization (rupture or erosion) leading to vascular thrombosis and occlusion of the coronary artery.2 Atherosclerotic features associated with ruptured plaques are large necrotic cores with an inflamed and thin ...
Atherosclerotic disease is the leading cause of death worldwide. Plaque rupture and erosion lead to superimposed thrombosis and are responsible for the vast majority of acute ischaemic syndromes. Vulnerable plaques, plaques that are at increased risk of rupture, pose certain high-risk morphological feat...
Introduction Histopathologic and intracoronary imaging studies show acute coronary syndrome (ACS) to result from atherosclerotic plaque erosion or rupture, most frequently in the setting of thin-cap fibroatheromas.1-3 Coronary computed tomographic angiography (CCTA) enables the noninvasive assessment of co...
2.5.2.3 Creep Strength and Rupture Strength Creep strength and rupture strength are commonly used when designing or using pipes or tubing. Rupture strength is defined as the stress, at specified environmental conditions (temperature, humidity, and sometimes chemical environment), required to produce rup...
Coronary plaque erosion without rupture into a lipid core. A frequent cause of coronary thrombosis in sudden coronary death. Circulation. 1996;93:1354–63. 35. Lansky AJ, Ng VG, Maehara A, Weisz G, Lerman A, Mintz GS, et al. Gender and the extent of coronary atherosclerosis, plaque ...
Because most vascular events are caused by the rupture or erosion of nonhemodynamically significant plaques, which by far outnumber flow-limiting lesions (probably by a factor of 10) (7), the predictive value of noninvasive stress testing in predicting acute vascular events is particularly poor. ...
