| Background Atherosclerosis is a disease that cholesterol plaque builds up inside arteries. The process of atherosclerosis starts when certain substances such as cholesterol, fats, and cellular waste products accumulate in the walls of arteries, and the immune system responds to these substances, triggering inflammation. Over time, this inflammation can cause the plaque to grow and harden, narrowing the artery and reducing blood flow. Carotid artery disease (CAD) is a conclusion of plaques in carotid artery. CAD can increase the risk of stroke, a potentially life-threatening condition that occurs when blood flow to the brain is interrupted.Objectives The objectives of this study were to detect the association between carotid artery stenosis and inflammatory markers.Methods This study was designed prospectively and included 109 and 100 patients having mild carotid stenosis and severe carotid stenosis, respectively … |
