Arterial calcification refers to the abnormal deposition of calcium salts in the arterial wall,
which results in vessel lumen stenosis and vascular remodeling. Studies increasingly show …

A series of clinical trials have confirmed the correlation between vascular calcification (VC)
and cardiovascular events and mortality. However, current treatments have little effects on …

Vascular calcification, a common pathological basis of vascular disease, is caused by
various diseases and is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular events. Therefore …

Atherosclerotic arteries frequently become calcified, and these calcium deposits are
associated with a high risk of adverse clinical events. Descriptive studies suggest …

The accumulation of calcium in atherosclerotic plaques is a prominent feature of advanced
atherosclerosis, and it has a strong positive correlation with the total burden of …

Cardiovascular calcification was originally considered a passive, degenerative process,
however with the advance of cellular and molecular biology techniques it is now appreciated …

Vascular calcification or ectopic mineralization in blood vessels is an active, cell-regulated
process, increasingly recognized as a general cardiovascular risk factor. Remarkably …

Vascular calcification is the deposition of calcium-phosphate salts in the form of
hydroxyapatite within the arterial wall. This is a finely regulated process to such an extent …

Vascular calcification is a common feature of chronic kidney disease, cardiovascular
disease, and aging. Such abnormal calcium deposition occurs in medial and/or intimal …

Vascular calcification is highly prevalent and, when present, is associated with major
adverse cardiovascular events. Vascular smooth muscle cells play an integral role in …
