This is a prospective study aimed to explore the changes of cognitive function after surgery for CAS and the correlation with brain connectivity, in order to look for the clinical biomarkers to predict the carotid stent implantation for patients which can effect the cognition
Carotid artery stenting (CAS) can significantly decrease the incidence of ischemic stroke in patients with severe carotid artery stenosis has been confirmed in large randomized controlled studies (1, 2).Previous studies showed carotid artery stenosis is closely related to cognitive dysfunction, including asymptomatic carotid artery stenosis(≥70%).Cognitive impairment is one of the most serious problem facing the elderly. The impact on cognitive function in patients with CAS has been discussed by many researchers, however the effect still remained conflicting.
In past few years, several imaging techniques, such as resting-state functional MRI (R-fMRI), had been increasingly used to study cognitive impairment in humans. In this study, we evaluated the cognition performance in severe carotid artery stenosis patients undergoing CAS and explored the mechanisms underlying the cognition changes by the Rs-fMRI.
