Clinical Outcomes and Patient Experiences With Celiprolol Therapy in Vascular Ehlers–Danlos Syndrome: The First Non‐European Cohort

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vascular Ehlers–Danlos syndrome (vEDS) is a hereditary connective tissue disorder caused by heterozygous pathogenic variants in COL3A1. European studies have shown that celiprolol may reduce the risk of life‐threatening vascular events, but outcomes in non‐European populations and the therapy's psychological impact remain unclear. We conducted

Electrocardiographic and Skin Manifestations of Turner Syndrome: Association With Cardiovascular Disease

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Congenital heart disease (CHD) and dermatologic conditions such as lymphedema and acquired melanocytic nevi (AMN) are common in Turner Syndrome (TS). We hypothesized that abnormalities of cranial neural crest cell derivatives drive the skin and heart manifestations of TS. We conducted joint cardiac and skin examinations of volunteers at a 2023

Macrophage‐targeted cerium‐tannic acid metal‐polyphenol framework nanoenzyme promotes in situ heart valves regeneration through adaptive immunomodulation

BMEMat, EarlyView.
A novel nanoenzyme based on cerium ions‐tannic acid metal‐polyphenol framework (FCT) has been developed and loaded onto DHVs for targeting M1 macrophages to reduce their ROS level and reprogram macrophage phenotype, thereby eliminating inflammation, promoting endothelialization and adaptive matrix remodeling of scaffolds, offering a promising strategy ...

Mycotic abdominal aortic aneurysm caused by Borrelia afzelii: a case report

Journal of Medical Case Reports, 2022
Background Inflammatory aneurysms and mycotic aneurysms make up a minority of abdominal aortic aneurysms. Mainly autoimmune mechanisms are proposed in the pathogenesis of inflammatory aneurysms, and it is not routine to check for infectious agents as ...

A Markov decision analysis model to aid the vascular surgeon in the management of a patient with an asymptomatic infra-renal abdominal aortic aneurysm [PDF]

, 2010
Introduction Despite increasing evidence regarding the safety and efficacy of endovascular (EVAR) and open abdominal aortic aneurysm repair, it is often unclear which technique is most appropriate for an individual patient.

Prevalence of abdominal aortic aneurysms: a screening program in São Paulo, Brazil

São Paulo Medical Journal
CONTEXT: Abdominal aortic aneurysm is an asymptomatic but potentially fatal condition. Elective surgery can prevent death from rupture, and is indicated for aneurysms larger than 45 mm. Because aneurysms tend to grow with time, detection of small ones (>

A Case of Gigantic Unruptured Abdominal Aneurysm Successfully Treated With Endovascular Repair (EVAR)

Annals of Internal Medicine: Clinical Cases, 2023
Aortic aneurysms are focal dilations of more than 50% the normal aortic diameter; giant abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) have diameters greater than or equal to 10 cm and are rare clinical entities. We present a case of an elderly man with an AAA with a
