TElmisartan in the management of abDominal aortic aneurYsm (TEDY): The study protocol for a randomized controlled trial [PDF]

, 2015
Background: Experimental studies suggest that angiotensin II plays a central role in the pathogenesis of abdominal aortic aneurysm. This trial aims to evaluate the efficacy of the angiotensin receptor blocker telmisartan in limiting the progression of ...

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 ...

Anatomical variation of the aorta in the West of Scotland – A population with high cardiovascular disease burden. Implications for stent design and deployment

Journal of Anatomy, Volume 242, Issue 1, Page 112-120, January 2023., 2023
A population with a high cardiovascular disease burden was found to have a high degree of anatomical variation in the aortic arch (angulation from coronal plane, origin of the vertebral artery) and the abdominal aorta regions (high degree of taper, high number of collaterals and tortuous vessels).

Advancements in left ventricular assist devices to prevent pump thrombosis and blood coagulopathy

Journal of Anatomy, Volume 242, Issue 1, Page 29-49, January 2023., 2023
Left ventricular assist device (LVAD)‐related blood coagulopathy: Pump thrombosis is one of the most severe adverse events caused by LVADs. The contact of blood with artificial materials of LVAD pumps and cannulas triggers the coagulation cascade. Abstract Mechanical circulatory support (MCS) devices, such as left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) are

Tuberculous Aneurysm of the Abdominal Aorta: Endovascular Repair Using Stent Grafts in Two Cases [PDF]

, 2000
Tuberculous aneurysm of the aorta is exceedingly rare. To date, the standard therapy for mycotic aneurysm of the abdominal aorta has been surgery involving in-situ graft placement or extra-anatomic bypass surgery followed by effective anti-tuberculous ...

Gut dysbiosis and bacterial translocation in the aneurysmal wall and blood in patients with abdominal aortic aneurysm.

PLoS ONE, 2022
Inflammation plays a part in the development of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), and the gut microbiota affects host inflammation by bacterial translocation. The relationship between abdominal aortic aneurysm and the gut microbiota remains unknown.

Systematic review and meta-analysis of the growth and rupture rates of small abdominal aortic aneurysms: implications for surveillance intervals and their cost-effectiveness. [PDF]

, 2013
BACKGROUND: Small abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs; 3.0-5.4 cm in diameter) are usually asymptomatic and managed by regular ultrasound surveillance until they grow to a diameter threshold (commonly 5.5 cm) at which surgical intervention is considered ...
