Hidden bacteria in artery plaques may predict Post-Surgery risks
NCT ID NCT06935279
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study examined 200 adults who had surgery to remove plaque from their carotid arteries. Researchers identified bacteria living inside the plaques and tracked whether certain types were linked to later strokes, re-narrowing of the artery, or death. The goal was to learn which bacteria might be risky, not to test a new treatment.
