In patients with CLAD, elevated plasma [[VEGF]] might be associated with [[cerebral microbleed]]s (CMBs), especially those located in the cortex and/or at the gray-white junction. [[Large artery]] atherosclerosis is an important cause of [[ischemic stroke]]. Recent randomized clinical trials have helped clarify the treatment options for conditions such as [[Carotid artery atherosclerotic disease]] and [[intracranial atherosclerosis]]. see [[Carotid artery atherosclerotic disease]]. cerebral_large_artery_disease.txt Last modified: 2024/06/07 02:59by 127.0.0.1
