Branch atheromatous disease (BAD) is a subtype of ischemic stroke caused by perforating arteries occlusion due to proximal atherosclerosis of the arteries. Early neurological deterioration and recurrent stereotyped transient ischemic attacks are typical clinical manifestations of BAD. The optimal treatment for BAD has not been determined. This article explores a possible mechanism of BAD and effective treatment measures to prevent early progression and attack of transient ischemic events. This article explains the current status of intravenous thrombolysis, tirofiban, and argatroban for BAD and subsequent prognosis.

Coronary heart disease (CHD) has been recognized as a chronic progressive inflammatory disorder, and Diabetes mellitus (DM) is an independent risk factor for the pathogenesis of CHD. Recent research has underscored the systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) as a potent prognostic indicator for individuals suffering from acute coronary syndrome (ACS). This study aimed to delve into the relationship between SII and the degree of coronary atherosclerotic stenosis in non-acute myocardial infarction patients with or without DM.

Background And Aim: This study aimed to develop a predictive model for early neurological deterioration (END) in branch atheromatous disease (BAD) affecting the lenticulostriate artery (LSA) territory using machine learning. Additionally, it aimed to explore the underlying mechanisms of END occurrence in this context.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of consecutive ischemic stroke patients with BAD in the LSA territory admitted to Dongyang People's Hospital from January 1, 2018, to September 30, 2023.

Introduction: Branch atheromatous disease (BAD) is prone to early neurological deterioration (END), leading to a poor prognosis. The most common arteries causing END are the lenticulostriate arteries (LSA) and the paramedian pontine arteries (PPA). To gain insight into the characteristics of symptomatic plaques and their association with poor prognosis in patients with BAD, we conducted a prospective study using high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging (HRMRI).

Background And Aim: The present study aimed to analyze the correlation between carotid atherosclerotic plaque (CAP) and/or subclavian atherosclerotic plaque (SAP) and coronary atherosclerosis disease (CASD).
Methods: A total of 1343 patients hospitalized for chest pain or tightness due to coronary atherosclerotic disease and underwent initial coronary angiography (CAG) were evaluated by color Doppler flow imaging (CDFI) for CAP and SAP. The patients were divided into four groups: non-CAP & non-SAP, only-SAP, only-CAP, or CAP & SAP.

Aims: The relationship between coronary artery atherosclerosis and microvascular resistance remains unclear. This study aims to clarify the relationship between total atherosclerotic and vessel-specific atherosclerotic burden and microvascular resistance reserve (MRR).
Methods And Results: In this post-hoc analysis of the PACIFIC 1 trial, symptomatic patients without prior coronary artery disease (CAD) underwent [15O]H2O positron emission tomography, coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) and invasive fractional flow reserve (FFR).
