Relationship Between Carotid Artery Remodeling Characteristics and Early Carotid Atherosclerosis: An Ultrasonographic Multicenter Study.
J Ultrasound Med
January 2025
Department of Vascular Ultrasonography, Xuanwu Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China.
Objectives: This study analyzed carotid artery remodeling characteristics in early carotid atherosclerosis (ECAS).
Methods: The 1021 participants were evaluated using ultrasonography and categorized into three groups: Group A, 391 participants with increased intima-media thickness (IMT); Group B, 300 participants with atherosclerotic plaque only on the carotid bulb (CB); and the control group (330 participants). The ratios of the diameters in the CB to those in the common carotid artery (D) and internal carotid artery (D) were defined as carotid index1 (CI) and 2 (CI).
The fibrosis-4 index and its association with carotid atherosclerosis in type 2 diabetes: a cross-sectional study in China.

Department of Endocrinology and Metabolism, Center for Diabetes and Metabolism Research, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu, China.
Background: The medical community has long been concerned about the cardiovascular disease risk in patients with type 2 diabetes. While liver fibrosis scores were originally designed for application in individuals with liver steatosis, an increasing number of studies have shown that they are also associated with cardiovascular disease risk. However, the association between Fibrosis-4 (Fib-4) in liver fibrosis scores and carotid atherosclerosis (CA) in patients with type 2 diabetes remains unclear.

Science is crucial for evidence-based decision-making. Public trust in scientists can help decision makers act on the basis of the best available evidence, especially during crises. However, in recent years the epistemic authority of science has been challenged, causing concerns about low public trust in scientists.

Department of Neurosurgery, Stanford University, Stanford, CA, USA.
People with paralysis express unmet needs for peer support, leisure activities and sporting activities. Many within the general population rely on social media and massively multiplayer video games to address these needs. We developed a high-performance, finger-based brain-computer-interface system allowing continuous control of three independent finger groups, of which the thumb can be controlled in two dimensions, yielding a total of four degrees of freedom.

Science is integral to society because it can inform individual, government, corporate, and civil society decision-making on issues such as public health, new technologies or climate change. Yet, public distrust and populist sentiment challenge the relationship between science and society. To help researchers analyse the science-society nexus across different geographical and cultural contexts, we undertook a cross-sectional population survey resulting in a dataset of 71,922 participants in 68 countries.
