“…Further research is required to more precisely define the predictors of evagination. Fifth, the qualitative OCT tissue classification for neoatherosclerosis has some ambiguity [18][19][20], which may lead to biased results. Finally, the present study was not powered to assess the relationship between the suboptimal stent results as determined by OCT and future coronary events.…”

“…For normal people, the oxygen is usually delivered by vasa vasorum and lumen to respectively reach outer and inner layers of the arterial wall. However, for atherosclerotic patients, vasa vasorum has changed in shape due to angiogenic expansion resulting in it becoming an only supply source for the entire wall [5,6]. Consequently, observation of vasa vasorum expansion can clinically help predict the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis [7].…”

Deposition of lipid in the artery wall called atherosclerosis is recognized as a major cause of cardiovascular disease that leads to death worldwide. A better understanding into factors that may influence the delivery of gadolinium nanoparticles (Gd-NPs) that enhances quality of magnetic resonance imaging in diagnosis may provide a vital key for atherosclerotic treatment. In this study, we propose a delay differential model for describing the dynamics of Gd-NPs in bloodstream, peripheral arteries, and vasa vasorum with two phenomena of Gd-NPs during a sojourn in vasa vasorum. We then investigate the dynamical behaviors of Gd-NPs and explore the effects of sojourn time and transfer rates of Gd-NPs on the concentration of Gd-NPs in vasa vasorum at the 12th hour after the administration of gadolinium chelates contrast media and also the maximum concentration of Gd-NPs in peripheral arteries and vasa vasorum. Our results suggest that the sojourn of Gd-NPs in vasa vasorum may lead to complex behaviors of Gd-NPs dynamics, and transfer rates of Gd-NPs may have a significant impact on the concentration of Gd-NPs.
