| pubmed-article:11322431 | pubmed:abstractText | Recent data suggest that the increased expression of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) in atherosclerotic plaque taken from the carotid bifurcation correlates with the development of neurological symptoms. As a result, the authors sought to compare the serum levels of soluble forms of ICAM-1 (sICAM-1) in patients who were asymptomatic with those who were symptomatic for carotid artery stenosis as well as in patients who were matched in terms of sex, age, and risk factors who did not have carotid artery disease. | lld:pubmed |
