Systematic screening for age‐related comorbidities: Health care optimization among persons with HIV in an outpatient setting

HIV Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Age‐related comorbidities occur earlier and more frequently in people with HIV (PWH) than in the general population and have emerged as a key challenge in long‐term HIV care. Unfortunately, many of these conditions remain undiagnosed, and systematic screening in clinical practice remains limited.

Porphyromonas gingivalis GroEL accelerates abdominal aortic aneurysm formation by matrix metalloproteinase‐2 SUMOylation in vascular smooth muscle cells: A novel finding for the activation of MMP‐2

Molecular Oral Microbiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Infection is a known cause of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), and matrix metalloproteases‐2 (MMP‐2) secreted by vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs) plays a key role in the structural disruption of the middle layer of the arteries during AAA progression.

Computational analysis to assess hemodynamic forces in descending thoracic aortic aneurysms

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Left: Pre‐processing. First, we perform the segmentation of the Computer Tomography angiorgraphy (angio‐CT) scans of a healthy patient, obtaining the surface of a healthy thoracic aorta with a Type III aortic arch. Then, we build nine ideal configurations with Descending Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm (DTAA), varying the aortic arch ...
