Cognitive And Balance Improvement After Carotid Endarterectomy In Asymptomatic Patients: A Prospective Study.

Neurocognitive Changes and Cerebral Blood Flow in Patients with Symptomatic Carotid Artery Stenosis before and after Carotid Endarterectomy

The association between cognitive gains and increased CBF suggests cerebral hemodynamics may play a role as a potentially reversible factor influencing cognitive dysfunction in this population of patients with severe symptomatic carotid artery stenosis.

Revascularization of Asymptomatic Carotid Artery Stenosis: Cognitive Results of the CREST-2 Randomized Trials.

Importance Studies show that asymptomatic carotid artery stenosis is associated with diminished cognition. Whether carotid revascularization leads to cognitive improvement is unclear. Objective To determine whether carotid revascularization improves cognition. Design, Setting, and Participants Prespecified cognitiv...

FUNCTIONAL CAPACITY AFTER PERCUTANEOUS CORONARY INTERVENTION: THE PREDOMINANT ROLE OF AGE

Functional capacity, commonly measured by six-minute walk test (6MWT), is a key outcome after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Although clinical and anatomical factors may influence recovery, their relative impact remains unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the determinants factors of functional capaci...

Revascularization in Asymptomatic Carotid Artery Stenosis With Hemodynamic Impairment and Cognitive Outcomes: The CREST-H Substudy of the CREST-2 Randomized Clinical Trial.

Importance Cerebral hemodynamic impairment in patients with asymptomatic internal carotid artery (ICA) stenosis is associated with reduced cognition. It is uncertain whether revascularization might be an effective treatment for cognitive impairment in these patients. Objective To test whether any cognitive benefit fr...

BIOMARKER-ORIENTED REHABILITATION IN CHRONIC CEREBRAL ISCHEMIA.

Perioperative Predictors and Temporal Trajectories of Postoperative Cognitive Decline After Carotid Endarterectomy: A Prospective Cohort Study

Background/Objectives: Carotid artery stenosis is a well-established risk factor for vascular cognitive impairment. Although carotid endarterectomy (CEA) reduces the risk of ischemic stroke, its effect on cognitive function remains uncertain. Most previous studies have relied on mean changes in cognitive scores and hav...
