Atherosclerosis is a leading cause of death. This study classifies atherosclerotic disease stages, aiding in understanding lesion development and guiding preventive and interventional therapies for better patient outcomes.

Area of Science:

  • Cardiovascular Science
  • Pathology
  • Medical Research

Context:

  • Atherosclerosis is a primary cause of mortality globally.
  • Current understanding of atherosclerotic disease progression and therapeutic targets requires refinement.
  • Existing classifications may not fully capture the variability in lesion behavior and associated risks.

Purpose:

  • To introduce a novel classification of atherosclerotic disease stages.
  • To integrate pathogenic concepts with therapeutic strategies.
  • To provide a framework for understanding lesion heterogeneity and risk stratification.

Summary:

  • The study presents a classification of atherosclerotic disease stages based on pathogenic and therapeutic principles.
  • It links distinct lesion types to a temporal course, cellular interactions, and specific stimuli.

  • Different plaque compositions and architectures are associated with variable risks of complications, irrespective of stenosis severity.
  • Impact:

    • This classification facilitates a deeper understanding of atherosclerosis development.
    • It supports the development of targeted preventive and interventional strategies, including gene therapy.
    • Integrating this concept with advanced clinical diagnostics can lead to improved, individualized atherosclerosis treatment.
