An Asymptomatic Case of Type B Aortic Dissection Developing Type A Dissection During Interfacility Transfer: A Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2026.
Total arch replacement using a frozen elephant trunk for retrograde type A aortic dissection was effective in excising the intimal tear located in the proximal descending aorta. ABSTRACT During the transfer from a hospital to a tertiary hospital, patients with acute aortic dissection can deteriorate due to aortic rupture or extension of the dissection.

Conditional knockout of membrane‐type I matrix metalloproteinase in smooth muscle cells of adult mice alleviates atherosclerosis without affecting basic cardiovascular function

Clinical and Translational Medicine, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.
Expression of smooth muscle cell‐specific MMP14 increases with atherosclerosis progression in humans. Inducible conditional knockout of SMC‐MMP14 in adult mice does not affect cardiac or vascular function. Inducible conditional knockout of SMC‐MMP14 in adult Ldlr−/− mice decreases atherosclerosis progression, increases plaque stability and accelerates ...

Mendelian Randomization Suggests a Causal Link Between Glycemic Traits and Thoracic Aortic Structures and Diseases

JACC: Basic to Translational Science
Summary: We investigate the relationship between glycemic traits—specifically type 2 diabetes mellitus, fasting glucose, fasting insulin, glycated hemoglobin, and 2-hour post-load glucose—and thoracic aortic morphology and diseases.
