Mechanisms of oxidative stress in human aortic aneurysms — association with clinical risk factors for atherosclerosis and disease severity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Aortic abdominal aneurysms (AAA) are important causes of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Oxidative stress may link multiple mechanisms of AAA including vascular inflammation and increased metalloproteinase activity.

H19 Induces Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Development and Progression

open access: yesCirculation, 2018
Background: Long noncoding RNAs have emerged as critical molecular regulators in various biological processes and diseases. Here we sought to identify and functionally characterize long noncoding RNAs as potential mediators in abdominal aortic aneurysm ...

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

open access: yes, 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 ...

Association of Aortic Aneurysms and Dissections With Subarachnoid Hemorrhage

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2019
Background It is uncertain whether aortic diseases, such as aneurysm and dissection, are associated with intracranial aneurysm formation and aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Methods and Results We used data on claims between 2008 and 2015 from a

Evolution of the wall shear stresses during the progressive enlargement of symmetric abdominal aortic aneurysms. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The changes in the evolution of the spatial and temporal distribution of the wall shear stresses (WSS) and gradients of wall shear stresses (GWSS) at different stages of the enlargement of an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) are important in understanding

Diabetes and aortic aneurysm: current state of the art

open access: yesCardiovascular Research, 2018
Aortic aneurysm is a life-threatening disease due to the risk of aortic rupture. The only curative treatment available relies on surgical approaches; drug-based therapies are lacking, highlighting an unmet need for clinical practice.

Vascular airway compression management in a case of aortic arch and descending thoracic aortic aneurysm

open access: yesAnnals of Cardiac Anaesthesia, 2016
Airway compression due to distal aortic arch and descending aortic aneurysm repair has been documented. This case of tracheal and left main stem bronchus compression due to aortic aneurysm occurred in a 42-year-old man.

Comparative analysis of thoracic and abdominal aortic aneurysms across the segment and species at the single-cell level

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2023
Introduction: Aortic aneurysm is a life-threatening disease resulted from progressive dilatation of the aorta, which can be subdivided into thoracic and abdominal aortic aneurysms.
