Aneurysm of the Abdominal Aorta [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation, 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

Ultrosound assessment of the thoracic and abdominal aorta in civil aviation pilots of senior age group

open access: yesАтеротромбоз, 2020
Introduction. Early detection of subclinical atherosclerosis in different arterial vessels, including the main vessel aorta, is important for clinical practice and aeromedical assessment, especially in senior age people.

COARCTATION OF THE ABDOMINAL AORTA [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Roentgenology, 1970
Two cases of coarctation of the abdominal aorta are reported to illustrate the salient diagnostic points and the improvement following surgery.Coarctation of the low thoracic or abdominal aorta must be considered strongly in young female patients who have upper extremity hypertension, strong upper abdominal aortic pulse which disappears distally or no ...

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

open access: yesArterial 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]

open access: yes, 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-

Evolution of the wall shear stresses during the progressive enlargement of symmetric abdominal aortic aneurysms. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The changes in the evolution of the spatial and temporal distribution of the wall shear stresses (WSS) and gradients of wall shear stresses (GWSS) at different stages of the enlargement of an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) are important in understanding

Analysis of the molecular mobility of collagen and elastin in safe, atheromatous and aneurysmal aortas [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Aim of the study : In this study, we propose to use a thermal technique, Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) to follow the evolution of elastin and collagen in safe and pathological cardiovascular tissues.

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

open access: yesFrontiers 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.

TGFβ (transforming growth factor-β) blockade induces a human-like disease in a nondissecting mouse model of abdominal aortic aneurysm [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Objective-Current experimental models of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) do not accurately reproduce the major features of human AAA. We hypothesized that blockade of TGF beta (transforming growth factor-beta) activity-a guardian of vascular integrity ...
