Abstract excerpt
<p>Introduction: The aims of the study were to elucidate gene expression changes associated with different stages of calcification in carotid artery plaques and clarify the dynamic biological processes underlying plaque maturation. METHODS: Carotid plaque specimens were classified into four groups - mildly, moderately, severely, and very severely calcified - based on calcium scores derived from computed...
