Discrete Event Simulation for Decision Modeling in Health Care: Lessons from Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Screening [PDF]

, 2017
Markov models are often used to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of new healthcare interventions but they are sometimes not flexible enough to allow accurate modeling or investigation of alternative scenarios and policies.

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

, 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 ...

Longitudinal 4D Flow MRI-Derived Wall Shear Stress in Patients With an Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm. [PDF]

J Magn Reson Imaging
ABSTRACT Background 4D flow MRI‐derived parameters such as wall shear stress (WSS) may improve abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) progression prediction. Validation of this biomarker is needed, but longitudinal data are lacking. Purpose Investigate longitudinal WSS changes and associations with AAA morphology. Study Type Prospective.

Endovascular repair of an abdominal aortic aneurysm associated with crossed fused renal ectopia

Journal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques, 2020
Chimney/snorkel endovascular aneurysm repair (Ch-EVAR) enables the minimally invasive treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysm in anatomically challenging and high-risk surgical cases. Here, we present the case of a 77-year-old man with an abdominal aortic

Recent Trends in Metabolomics by NMR Spectroscopy

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
AI tools were applied to analyze more than 5 000 publications indexed in Scopus (2018–2025), identifying key trends and research directions in NMR‐based metabolomics. The artificial intelligence‐assisted workflow classified papers into six main fields of application, human health, food and nutrition, veterinary science, plants, environment, and ...

Collateral miracle—reformation of iliac and femoral arteries by collaterals from bilateral subclavian arteries following contained rupture of abdominal aortic aneurysm in a hypertensive female

Journal of the Saudi Heart Association, 2019
Rupture of an abdominal aortic aneurysm is readily diagnosed when the triad of abdominal or back pain, shock and a pulsatile abdominal mass are present.

Abdominal aortic aneurysm

Journal of British Surgery, 1988
Abstract Between 1981 and 1986, 282 cases of abdominal aortic aneurysm were diagnosed in Waltham Forest. Rupture had occurred in 183, 15 underwent urgent operation for intact aneurysm, and 84 had elective surgery. The incidence of rupture increased from 13 to 21 per 100000 population during the 6-year period.

Theoretical impact of insecticide-impregnated school uniforms on dengue incidence in Thai children. [PDF]

, 2013
BACKGROUND: Children carry the main burden of morbidity and mortality caused by dengue. Children spend a considerable amount of their day at school; hence strategies that reduce human-mosquito contact to protect against the day-biting habits of Aedes ...

Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm

The Journal of Clinical Hypertension, 2004
An abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is defined as a localized dilation of the artery that is 1.5 times the diameter of the normal segment. The most common location for an aortic aneurysm is the infrarenal segment where a diameter that exceeds 3 cm in diameter is considered aneurysmal.
