A nomogram for predicting adverse neurovascular events after carotid artery stenting in patients with symptomatic carotid stenosis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Carotid artery stenting (CAS) is considered a crucial treatment option for patients with symptomatic carotid artery stenosis. Nevertheless, adverse neurovascular events (ANEs) following this procedure remain a significant challenge. This study aimed to identify risk factors for ANEs and to construct a predictive nomogram to assist in perioperative risk stratification.

Methods

This retrospective study (January 2020-January 2025) enrolled consecutive symptomatic carotid stenosis patients undergoing CAS from two centers: 209 in the training cohort from Ganzhou People's Hospital and 148 in the external validation cohort from The First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University. Patients were categorized into ANE and non-ANE groups based on postoperative outcomes withi
