Oscillatory wall shear stress is a dominant flow characteristic affecting lesion progression patterns and plaque vulnerability in patients with coronary artery disease

Although experimental studies suggest that low and oscillatory wall shear stress (WSS) promotes plaque transformation to a more vulnerable phenotype, this relationship has not been examined in human atherosclerosis progression. Thus, the aim of this investigation was to examine the association betwe...
