Extracranial carotid artery stenosis (ECAS) due to the presence of atherosclerotic plaque is
a well‐known risk factor for stroke. Several structural imaging studies have investigated the …

Background and Purpose—Severe asymptomatic carotid stenosis has been associated with
cognitive impairment, but it is unknown whether this association is attributable to effects on …

Introduction Severe internal carotid stenosis, if left untreated, can pose serious risks for
ischemic stroke and cognitive impairments. The effects of revascularization on any aspects …

Objective Neural disruption and cognitive impairment have been reported in patients with
carotid stenosis (CS), but carotid artery stenting (CAS) may not contribute to the cognitive …

Background Asymptomatic carotid artery stenosis (aCAS) impairs haemodynamic and
cognitive functions; however, the relationship between these changes and brain network …

Introduction There is evidence suggesting a detrimental effect of asymptomatic carotid artery
stenosis on cognitive function even in the absence of ischemic cerebral lesions …

Background and purpose Asymptomatic carotid artery stenosis can lead to not only stroke
but also cognition impairment. Although it has been proven that carotid artery stenting (CAS) …

Introduction Chronic cerebral hypoperfusion caused by asymptomatic high-grade stenosis of
the internal carotid artery (ICA) has been associated with impaired cognitive function. Only …

Internal carotid artery stenosis is a risk factor for ischemic stroke. Even in the absence of
visible structural brain changes, patients with asymptomatic stenosis are prone to cognitive …

While stroke is a known cause of a cognitive impairment, the relationship between a carotid
artery stenosis and the cognitive function in individuals without a history of stroke is less …
