The Relationship between Arterial Elasticity Parameters of Ascending Aorta, Abdominal Aorta and Carotid Arteries with Carotid Intima Media Thickness in Children with Bicuspid Aortic Valve

Anatolian Journal of Cardiology, 2022
Background: Bicuspid aortic valve is a congenital cardiac malformation that affects not only the valve and ascending aorta but also the abdominal aorta and large central arteries like carotid arteries by damaging the elasticity of the vessel resulting in

Correlation between coronary artery calcium score and aorta diameter in population with long-standing hypertension using noncontrast CT scan

Arterial Hypertension, 2022
BACKGROUND: Early detection of aortic aneurysms is challenging in hypertensive patients due to the high risk of life-threatening ruptures. Limited studies on the relationship between coronary artery calcium and aortic diameter are present.

Propagation-based phase-contrast synchrotron imaging of aortic dissection in mice : from individual elastic lamella to 3D analysis [PDF]

, 2018
In order to show the advantage and potential of propagation-based phase-contrast synchrotron imaging in vascular pathology research, we analyzed aortic medial ruptures in BAPN/AngII-infused mice, a mouse model for aortic dissection. Ascending and thoraco-

Aneurysm of the Abdominal Aorta [PDF]

Circulation, 2001
A 76-year-old man was admitted to the intensive care unit with unstable angina pectoris of Braunwald class IIIB. He was known to have hypertension, which was poorly controlled with medication. Physical examination revealed a pulsating mass in the lower abdomen that was suggestive of an aortic aneurysm. An echocardiographic study with a small, hand-held

Targeting interleukin-1β protects from aortic aneurysms induced by disrupted transforming growth factor β signaling [PDF]

, 2017
Aortic aneurysms are life-threatening conditions with effective treatments mainly limited to emergency surgery or trans-arterial endovascular stent grafts, thus calling for the identification of specific molecular targets.

Different anti-contractile function and nitric oxide production of thoracic and abdominal perivascular adipose tissues

Frontiers in Physiology, 2016
Divergent phenotypes between the perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) surrounding the abdominal and the thoracic aorta might be implicated in regional aortic differences, such as susceptibility to atherosclerosis.
