Propensity score matched analysis of 5-year outcomes of transcarotid revascularization, transfemoral carotid artery stenting, and carotid endarterectomy

Key takeaways

This study compared three types of surgery to clear blockages in the neck arteries. It looked at death rates and stroke risks over five years. This is an observational study, so it shows links but not proof of cause. While not a kidney study, healthy blood flow in the neck is important for overall health, including the kidneys.
