Carotid stenting and transcranial Doppler monitoring: indications for carotid stenosis treatment.

abstract：BACKGROUND:The systemic nature of atherosclerosis compromises medium-term survival following major vascular surgery. Neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) is a simple index of systemic inflammatory burden which correlates with survival following percutaneous coronary intervention. METHODS:Patients undergoing elective majo...
