Aortic diseases contribute to the high overall cardiovascular mortality rate. The Global Burden Disease 2010 project demonstrated that the overall global death rate from aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection has increased in the past decade. Guidelines on the diagnosis and treatment of aortic diseases emphasize rapid and efficacious diagnostic ...

Computational fluid dynamicaccuracy in mimicking changes in blood hemodynamics in patients with acute type IIIb aortic dissection treated with TEVAR [PDF]
Background: We aimed to verify the accuracy of the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) algorithm for blood flow reconstruction for type IIIb aortic dissection (TBAD) before and after thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR).

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

Imaging Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm
High-quality aortic imaging plays a central role in the management of patients with thoracic aortic aneurysm. Computed tomography angiography and magnetic resonance angiography are the most commonly used techniques for thoracic aortic aneurysm diagnosis and imaging surveillance, with each having unique strengths and limitations that should be weighed ...

Targeting interleukin-1β protects from aortic aneurysms induced by disrupted transforming growth factor β signaling [PDF]
Aortic aneurysms are life-threatening conditions with effective treatments mainly limited to emergency surgery or trans-arterial endovascular stent grafts, thus calling for the identification of specific molecular targets.

BACKGROUND: Aortic aneurysms, known as silent killers, are frequently asymptomatic, leading to vessel rupture and death. Annual rates for ruptures, stratifications, and sudden deaths are up to 3.6%, 3.7%, and 10.8%, respectively.

Analysis of the molecular mobility of collagen and elastin in safe, atheromatous and aneurysmal aortas [PDF]
Aim of the study : In this study, we propose to use a thermal technique, Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) to follow the evolution of elastin and collagen in safe and pathological cardiovascular tissues.

A Review of Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm Disease [PDF]
Abstract Aortic diseases may be diagnosed after a long period of subclinical development or they may have an acute presentation. Acute aortic syndrome is often the first sign of the disease, which needs rapid diagnosis and decision making to reduce the extremely poor prognosis. Aortic dilatation is a well-recognised risk factor for acute
