PLAQUE AND BRAIN INFLAMMATION IN SYMPTOMATIC CAROTID STENOSIS: ROLE OF THE FICOLIN-2 STATEMENT

This study looks at how a protein called ficolin-2 in the blood might be linked to brain inflammation and fatty deposits (plaque) in arteries that lead to the brain. Researchers want to understand these links better, especially in people who have had a stroke or mini-stroke.
