Abstract:

BACKGROUND: It is generally recognized that cervical rotation manipulation can increase the risk of detachment of unstable plaques in carotid atherosclerosis, but few studies are reported on the influence of cervical rotation manipulation on the stable plaque in early carotid atherosclerosis. 
OBJECTIVE: To explore the influence of the cervical rotation manipulation on the lipid contents in carotid atherosclerotic plaque in a rabbit model of early carotid atherosclerosis.
METHODS: After being fed for 15 days with normal diet, 30 male New Zealand White rabbits were further fed for 18 weeks with normal diet (n = 10; control group) or a high-fat diet containing 2% cholesterol, 10% lard and 88% normal granules to build rabbit models of early carotid atherosclerosis with stable carotid plaque (n = 20). At 14 weeks of feeding with high-fat diet, the experimental rabbits fed with high-fat diet were randomly divided into a cervical rotation manipulation group (n = 10) and a model group (n = 10). The rabbits in the cervical rotation manipulation group underwent cervical rotation manipulation to the left and right sides, once each side, with the maximal range of rotation. Total five cervical rotation manipulations, once every 3 days, were performed.
RESULETS AND CONCLUSION: The 1 450 cm-1 and 1 660 cm-1 peaks of the Raman spectrum of lipid in the carotid atherosclerotic plaque of rabbit models were not distinctly present in the control group, however, they 
were obviously observed in the cervical rotation manipulation group and model group. Nevertheless, the relative intensity differences at spectrum characteristic peaks were not significant between cervical rotation manipulation group and model group (P > 0.05). The environmental findings indicate that the lipid content in carotid atherosclerotic plaque of rabbit models of early carotid atherosclerosis cannot be increased after short-term administration of cervical rotation manipulation.
