Immune Modulation as a Treatment for Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms [PDF]

, 2018
In the United States, over 200,000 new patients are diagnosed with abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) each year. Consequently, over 40,000 highly morbid aortic reconstructions are performed each year to prevent aneurysm rupture, a catastrophic event ...

Lower respiratory tract infection and rapid expansion of an abdominal aortic aneurysm: a case report

Journal of Medical Case Reports, 2010
Introduction The rate of abdominal aortic aneurysm expansion is related to multiple factors. There is some evidence that inflammation can accelerate aneurysm expansion. However, the association between pulmonary sepsis and rapid abdominal aortic aneurysm

FIGO good practice recommendations: Assisted vaginal birth and the second stage of labor

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Cesarean birth (CB) rates are increasing globally, with a current prevalence of 21.1% and a projected prevalence of 28.5% by 2030. Conversely, assisted vaginal birth (AVB) rates are declining, with reported rates of less than 10% in low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs) and 10%–15% in high‐income countries (HICs). In some African countries,

Perivascular adipose tissue inflammation in vascular disease [PDF]

, 2017
Perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular disease. In vascular pathologies, perivascular adipose tissue increases in volume and becomes dysfunctional, with altered cellular composition and molecular ...

Abdominal POCUS Education for Clinicians: A Systematic Review of Teaching Methods for Point‐of‐Care Abdominal Ultrasonography

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, Volume 53, Issue 3, Page 547-561, March/April 2025.
For patients to benefit from abdominal point‐of‐care ultrasound, the ultrasound examinator must be sufficiently trained. In this systematic review, we identified advantages and disadvantages of different training methods and approaches. We conclude that thoughtful integration of the various educational methods is crucial for stakeholders and educators.

Study of Risk Factors and Image Findings of Isolated Abdominal Incidentally Detected Aortic Dissection

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, Volume 53, Issue 3, Page 429-435, March/April 2025.
We detect the risk factors and image characteristics of incidentally detected IAAD. Independent risk factors of IAAD included fatty liver and smoking. In the ultrasound findings of IAAD, an intimal flap was frequently observed. In the CT scan, displacement of intimal calcifications was frequently observed. For suspected IAAD, the abdominal aorta should

[Abdominal aortic aneurysm].

Der Internist, 2009
Abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) confer a substantial healthcare burden in the Western world. Surgical or endovascular therapy is indicated in patients with a maximum diameter exceeding 5.5 cm. Patients with smaller AAA must undergo a specific ultrasound surveillance program aimed at avoiding exposure to an increased risk of rupture once their AAA ...

Simultaneous Visualization of the Carotid and Subclavian Arteries Using Non–Contrast‐Enhanced MR Angiography With a 3D Fast Field Echo Sequence and Time‐Spatial Labeling Inversion Pulse: A Comparison With 3D Time‐of‐Flight MR Angiography

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Carotid artery stenosis is a major cause of stroke. Non‐contrast MR angiography (MRA) using time‐spatial labeling inversion pulse (Time‐SLIP) may offer potential advantages over 3D time‐of‐flight (TOF)‐MRA for simultaneous visualization of carotid, vertebral, and subclavian arteries, but remains uninvestigated.
