    • Association of specific HLA phenotypes with left ventricular mass and carotid intima-media thickness in hypertensives 

      Diamantopoulos, E. J.; Andreadis, E. A.; Vassilopoulos, C. V.; Vlachonikolis, I. G.; Tarassi, K. E.; Chatzis, N. A.; Giannakopoulos, N. S.; Papasteriades, C. A. (2001)
      The aim of this study was to investigate the hypothesis that the expression of certain HLA antigens may constitute a risk marker for cardiovascular hypertrophy in subjects with arterial hypertension. We examined 158 subjects ...
    • Carotid Atherosclerosis and Patent Foramen Ovale in Embolic Stroke of Undetermined Source 

      Ntaios G., Sagris D., Strambo D., Perlepe K., Sirimarco G., Georgiopoulos G., Nannoni S., Korompoki E., Manios E., Makaritsis K., Vemmos K., Michel P. (2021)
      Background: Carotid atherosclerosis and likely pathogenic patent foramen ovale (PFO) are two potential embolic sources in patients with embolic stroke of undetermined source (ESUS). The relationship between these two ...
    • Carotid Bifurcation Geometry and Atherosclerosis 

      Spanos K., Petrocheilou G., Karathanos C., Labropoulos N., Mikhailidis D., Giannoukas A. (2017)
      Hemodynamic changes occurring at the initial segments of the arterial bifurcations appear to play an important role in the development of atherosclerotic plaque. Therefore, arterial geometry might be a potential marker for ...
    • Carotid Bifurcation Geometry as Assessed by Ultrasound is Associated with Early Carotid Atherosclerosis 

      Spanos K., Petrocheilou G., Livieratos L., Labropoulos N., Mikhailidis D.P., Giannoukas A.D. (2018)
      Background: Atherosclerosis usually develops at geometrically susceptible areas, despite the impact of systemic risk factors on the entire vascular system. The aim of our study was to investigate whether carotid bifurcation ...
    • Carotid plaques and detection of atrial fibrillation in embolic stroke of undetermined source 

      Ntaios G., Perlepe K., Sirimarco G., Strambo D., Eskandari A., Karagkiozi E., Vemmou A., Koroboki E., Manios E., Makaritsis K., Michel P., Vemmos K. (2019)
      OBJECTIVE: To investigate the association between the presence of ipsilateral nonstenotic carotid plaques and the rate of detection of atrial fibrillation (AF) during follow-up in patients with embolic strokes of undetermined ...
    • Efficacy and Safety of Rivaroxaban Versus Aspirin in Embolic Stroke of Undetermined Source and Carotid Atherosclerosis 

      Ntaios G., Swaminathan B., Berkowitz S.D., Gagliardi R.J., Lang W., Siegler J.E., Lavados P., Mundl H., Bornstein N., Meseguer E., Amarenco P., Cucchiara B., Camps-Renom P., Makaritsis K., Korompoki E., Papavasileiou V., Marti-Fabregas J., Milionis H., Vemmos K., Connolly S.J., Hart R.G. (2019)
      Background and Purpose - The sources of emboli in patients with embolic stroke of undetermined source (ESUS) are multiple and may not respond uniformly to anticoagulation. In this exploratory subgroup analysis of patients ...
    • Fatigue of textiles used in vascular surgery: Application to carotid endarterectomy 

      Gavardinas I.D., Spyrou L.A., Zervaki A., Spanos K., Giannoukas A.D., Giannakopoulos A.E. (2021)
      Fatigue is a material-based phenomenon playing a significant role in the mechanical behavior of components and structures. Although fatigue has been well studied for traditional materials, such as metals, its underlying ...
    • Haemostatic Gauze Emerging From The Neck Incision Five Months after Carotid Endarterectomy 

      Spanos K., Giannoukas A.D. (2017)
      [No abstract available]
    • Progression of conventional cardiovascular risk factors and vascular disease risk in individuals: insights from the PROG-IMT consortium 

      Bahls M., Lorenz M.W., Dörr M., Gao L., Kitagawa K., Tuomainen T.-P., Agewall S., Berenson G., Catapano A.L., Norata G.D., Bots M.L., van Gilst W., Asselbergs F.W., Brouwers F.P., Uthoff H., Sander D., Poppert H., Hecht Olsen M., Empana J.P., Schminke U., Baldassarre D., Veglia F., Franco O.H., Kavousi M., de Groot E., Mathiesen E.B., Grigore L., Polak J.F., Rundek T., Stehouwer C.D.A., Skilton M.R., Hatzitolios A.I., Savopoulos C., Ntaios G., Plichart M., McLachlan S., Lind L., Willeit P., Steinmetz H., Desvarieux M., Ikram M.A., Johnsen S.H., Schmidt C., Willeit J., Ducimetiere P., Price J.F., Bergström G., Kauhanen J., Kiechl S., Sitzer M., Bickel H., Sacco R.L., Hofman A., Völzke H., Thompson S.G., on behalf of the PROG-IMT Study Group (2020)
      Aims: Averaged measurements, but not the progression based on multiple assessments of carotid intima-media thickness, (cIMT) are predictive of cardiovascular disease (CVD) events in individuals. Whether this is true for ...
    • Treatment of posterior circulation symptomatic disease: A reappraisal may be needed 

      Spanos K., Kouvelos G.N., Matsagkas M., Giannoukas A.D. (2017)
