Analysis of risk factors and diseases associated with atherosclerosis in the progression of carotid artery stenosis.

abstract：OBJECTIVES:Atherosclerosis is considered as a chronic inflammatory disorder where the central role of T cells in its pathogenesis is well known. T helper-9 cells have a distinctive effect upon the inflammatory processes. They stimulate macrophages via secretion of their cytokine interleukin-9. Based on its known involv...
