Arrhythmic acute coronary syndrome and anomalous left main stem artery: culprit or innocent bystander However, it was not possible to identify an acutely ruptured coronary plaque. It was thus unclear whether the troponin rise related to the tachycardia or... AM Crean,N Kilcullen,JF Younger - 《...

Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease responsible for many clinical manifestations, such as coronary artery disease and ischemic stroke1. The deposition of lipid under a blood vessel wall leads to the formation of atherosclerotic plaques. The rupture of the plaque blocks the blood vessel an...
Coronary Plaque Morphology and Frequency of Ulceration Distant From Culprit Lesions in Patients With Unstable and Stable Presentation OBJECTIVE: Intravascular ultrasound studies describe ruptured coronary plaques at sites remote from the culprit lesion in patients with acute myocardial in...

Our aim, therefore, was to investigate the presence of NETs in atherosclerotic plaques and whether they are spatially associated with plaque rupture. Following IRB approval, 7 human carotid arteries containing segments of ruptured plaque were collected during surgical endarterectomy. Sequential 5-micron ...
After the examination, a large thrombus was revealed and a mid right coronary artery lesion was imaged, which showed a plaque with a deep ulceration in the vessel wall.ÇilingirogluDepartmentMehmetDepartmentAkkuşDepartmentNuriDepartmentEBSCO_AspAnatolian Journal of Cardiology...

Several reports suggest that a chronic inflammatory process plays a key role in coronary artery plaque instability and subsequent occlusive thrombosis. In a previous study, we found that TLR4 (Toll-like receptor 4) mediates the synthesis of cytokines in circulating monocytes of patients with AMI (ac...
