Recent research has illuminated the role of total coronary atherosclerotic plaque activity across the entire coronary arterial tree in predicting patient-level clinical outcomes. Vessel-level coronary atherosclerotic plaque activity was assessed using coronary 18 F-sodium fluoride positron emission tomography (PET). 3.72; P = 0.013).

Detailed analysis of the excised carotid plaques were carried out with pyrolysis-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, stable isotope analysis, and electron microscopy. Primary endpoint of the study was a composite of myocardial infarction, stroke, or death from any cause in those who had micro and nanoplastics in the carotid plaque.

Plaque regression can be demonstrated by ultrasound evaluation of the carotids which are easily accessible. Maintaining normal blood pressure also reduces the risk of stroke and myocardial infarction. Of course, exercise burns out extra calories and reduces body weight, which in turn is due to a decrease in the fat deposits.
