Article Abstract

Following the global increase in atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases, the demand for the effective identification of high-risk factors that lead to atherosclerotic plaque rupture and the search for new therapeutic targets has also increased. Neovascularization within plaques is widely recognized as an important indicator of plaque vulnerability. Thus, the timely detection of neovascularization within plaques and early intervention treatment can help reduce the potential adverse cardiovascular events caused by plaque rupture. This article introduces the formation mechanism, clinical significance, detection techniques, and prevention strategies for neovascularizing atherosclerotic plaques.

Growing evidence indicates that coronary plaque instability is an independent risk factor for adverse coronary events, yet current optical coherence tomography (OCT) assessment of high-risk plaque characteristics (HRPC) relies largely on qualitative interpretation. The index of plaque attenuation (IPA) is a quantitative OCT-based metric that may provide a more objective evaluation. This retrospective observational diagnostic accuracy study assessed the performance of OCT-derived IPA for HRPC detection in patients with acute coronary syndrome or stable angina, using expert consensus qualitative OCT analysis as the reference standard.

Atherosclerosis is the most important etiology of acute myocardial infarction, which is considered an inflammatory disease with specific cellular and molecular responses. Recent research has linked hematological variables as biomarkers of the severity of coronary artery disease. Studies suggest that nucleated red blood cells (NRBCs), neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR), and mean platelet volume (MPV) may serve as components of a laboratory model or hematological scoring system for in-hospital surveillance.

Modulating macrophage function is an effective strategy for treating atherosclerosis. Our previous research shows that tilianin (Til) effectively regulates macrophage polarization. This immune modulation positions Til as a promising plant-derived therapeutic agent with potential for atherosclerosis treatment and management.
