Management of Coronary Artery Disease in CADASIL Patients: Review of Current Literature
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL) is the most common heritable form of vascular dementia in adults. It is well-established that CADASIL results in neurocognitive dysfunction and mood disturbance. There is also cumulative evidence that CADASIL patients are more susceptible to ischemic heart disease. The aim of this study is to review the current literature regarding the incidence of coronary artery disease in CADASIL patients with a focus on the various management options and the clinical challenges associated with each of these treatment strategies. We conducted a literature search using Cochrane, MEDLINE, and EMBASE for papers that reported the occurrence of coronary artery disease in patients with CADASIL. We supplemented the search with a manual search in Google Scholar. Only case reports, case series, and original articles were included. The search resulted in six reports indicating the association between coronary artery disease and CADASIL and its management. Evidence suggests that extracranial manifestations of CADASIL may include coronary artery disease, presenting as a more extensive burden of disease in younger patients. Surgical and percutaneous revascularization strategies are feasible, but the incidence of peri-procedural stroke remains significant and should be weighed against the potential benefit derived from either of these strategies. A multidisciplinary approach to therapy, with perspectives from neurologists, cardiologists, and cardiac surgeons, is needed to provide the appropriate treatment to the CADASIL patient with severe coronary artery disease. Future studies should be directed toward the development of targeted therapies that may help with the early detection and prevention of disease progress in these patients.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
