Contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) is increasingly being used to identify patients with
carotid plaques that are vulnerable to rupture, so-called vulnerable atherosclerotic plaques …

The goal of this meta-analysis is to investigate whether carotid intraplaque
neovascularization (IPN) on contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) correlates with past …

Background Evidence on the associations of carotid intima‐media thickness and carotid
plaque characteristics with stroke subtypes and coronary artery disease risks in Asians is …

Objectives. To evaluate the diagnostic performance of contrast‐enhanced ultrasound
(CEUS) for atherosclerotic carotid plaque neovascularization. Methods. The electronic …

Purpose To assess carotid intima‐media thickness (IMT), carotid plaques, and
cardiovascular risk factors in patients with suspected coronary artery disease (CHD) to …

Breast cancer (BC) is the most prevalent cancer among women. Long non‑coding (lnc)
RNAs and microRNAs (miRs) both regulate the expression of key genes in tumorigenesis …

Objectives To investigate carotid intima‐media roughness (IMR) in hypertensive patients
with normal carotid intima‐media thickness (IMT) using automatic identification software and …

BACKGROUND Coronary heart disease is associated with coronary atherosclerosis
indicated by carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) thickening and altered vascular elasticity …

Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate different carotid plaque types and their
correlations with the risk factors for myocardial infarction (MI) in patients with carotid …

Background and Aim Contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) can reliably identify vulnerable
plaques. As atherosclerosis is a systemic disease, we evaluated whether contrast …
