Carotid plaque, aging, and risk factors. A study of 457 subjects.

abstract：BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:Accumulating evidence indicates that inflammatory responses cause secondary injury after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). We recently demonstrated the involvement of toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) signaling in these processes. The purpose of the current study was to investigate the protective effect ...
