Single‐Cell Profiling Identifies CLEC5A+ Macrophages as Key Drivers of Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm Via CCL5‐Mediated M1 Polarization

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
Thoracic aortic aneurysm (TAA) is a life‐threatening cardiovascular disease with limited therapeutic options. Through single‐cell RNA sequencing of aortic tissues from healthy individuals and TAA patients (105,541 cells), we identified CLEC5A+macrophages as the predominant pathogenic cell population exhibiting the highest M1 polarization score.

Sonographic Diagnosis of an Intercostal Artery Pseudoaneurysm: A Case Report and Literature Review

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
A 63‐year‐old male presented to the emergency department after being found unconscious during a welfare check. Following a prolonged three‐month hospital admission, the patient developed left flank pain. Spectral Doppler ultrasound revealed a large isoechoic lesion with layering echoes, and spectral Doppler demonstrated bidirectional flow.
