Association Between Perioperative Sleep Disorders and Post‐Operative Delirium in Cardiac Surgeries: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
Overview of studies included in the systematic review investigating the association between perioperative sleep disorders (PSD) and postoperative delirium (POD) in patients undergoing cardiac surgery. ABSTRACT Post‐operative delirium (POD) is an acute deterioration in cognitive function and highly prevalent after cardiac surgery (CS; up to 55 ...

Porphyromonas gingivalis GroEL accelerates abdominal aortic aneurysm formation by matrix metalloproteinase‐2 SUMOylation in vascular smooth muscle cells: A novel finding for the activation of MMP‐2

open access: yesMolecular Oral Microbiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Infection is a known cause of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), and matrix metalloproteases‐2 (MMP‐2) secreted by vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs) plays a key role in the structural disruption of the middle layer of the arteries during AAA progression.

Acute alterations in blood lactate in the setting of transient stress induced myocardial ischaemia

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract An elevation in resting venous blood lactate ([La−]b) levels in conditions of myocardial hypoperfusion is associated with adverse prognosis and survival. This investigation aimed to assess changes in venous [La−]b levels induced by dobutamine stress in the presence and absence of myocardial ischaemia and adverse outcomes at 1 year.

Five-year results of endovascular aortic repair used according to instructions for use give a good general outcome for abdominal aortic aneurysm

open access: yesSAGE Open Medicine, 2019
Objectives: The primary aim of this study was to investigate the rate of sac enlargement and secondary procedures after 5 years when instructions for use are strictly applied with endovascular aortic repair. The secondary aim was to investigate if strict

[Abdominal aortic aneurysm].

open access: yesDer 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 ...

THE INCIDENCE OF ABDOMINAL AORTIC ANEURYSMS

open access: yesInternational Journal of Clinical Practice, 1993
SUMMARY The incidence of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) is increasing, especially in the elderly. This trend has been observed in the United Kingdom,1 USA,2 Australia,3,4 and Sweden5,6 The increase can be explained partly by an enhanced awareness of the condition and partly by the rising numbers of elderly in the population.

The clinical and physiological profiles of kissing stents in endovascular reconstruction of aortoiliac occlusive disease

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aortoiliac occlusive disease affecting the abdominal aorta and iliac arteries is conventionally treated with open surgical repair and is the mainstay of treatment. Endovascular techniques have become a less invasive alternative, especially for high‐risk patients.
