Carotid artery stenting compared with endarterectomy in patients with symptomatic carotid stenosis (International Carotid Stenting Study): an interim analysis of a randomised controlled trial

Jörg Ederle, +351 more
- 20 Mar 2010 - 
TL;DR: Completion of long-term follow-up is needed to establish the efficacy of carotid artery stenting compared with endarterectomy, but in the meantime, carotin artery stent should remain the treatment of choice for patients suitable for surgery.
Journal ArticleDOI

Putative Drosophila pheromone-binding proteins expressed in a subregion of the olfactory system.

TL;DR: The potential identification of pheromone-binding proteins in Drosophila, a species with well characterized genetics, may offer a means of analyzing the function of these molecules that is not available in other systems.
Journal ArticleDOI

Long-term risk of carotid restenosis in patients randomly assigned to endovascular treatment or endarterectomy in the Carotid and Vertebral Artery Transluminal Angioplasty Study (CAVATAS): long-term follow-up of a randomised trial

TL;DR: Restenosis is about three times more common after endovascular treatment than after endarterectomy and is associated with recurrent ipsilateral cerebrovascular symptoms; however, the risk of recurrent embedding stroke is low and further data are required to ascertain whether long-term ultrasound follow-up is necessary after carotid revascularisation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Endovascular treatment with angioplasty or stenting versus endarterectomy in patients with carotid artery stenosis in the Carotid And Vertebral Artery Transluminal Angioplasty Study (CAVATAS): long-term follow-up of a randomised trial

TL;DR: More patients had stroke during follow-up in the endovascular group than in the surgical group, but the rate of ipsilateral non-perioperative stroke was low in both groups and none of the differences in the stroke outcome measures was significant; however, the study was underpowered and the confidence intervals were wide.
