H19 Induces Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Development and Progression

Circulation, 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 ...

Managing Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm in Patients with Bicuspid Aortic Valve Based on Aortic Root-Involvement

Frontiers in Physiology, 2017
Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) can be both sporadic and hereditary, is phenotypically variable, and genetically heterogeneous. The clinical presentation of BAV is diverse and commonly associated with a high prevalence of valvular dysfunction producing ...

Simulation of bifurcated stent grafts to treat abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) [PDF]

, 2016
In this paper a method is introduced, to visualize bifurcated stent grafts in CT-Data. The aim is to improve therapy planning for minimal invasive treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA). Due to precise measurement of the abdominal aortic aneurysm and exact simulation of the bifurcated stent graft, physicians are supported in choosing a suitable ...

Association of Aortic Aneurysms and Dissections With Subarachnoid Hemorrhage

Journal 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

Wall Stress Distributions in Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms Do Not Correlate With Symptoms [PDF]

Is there a relationship between stress in walls of abdominal aortic aneurysm and symptoms? Journal of Surgical Research 2020, 252, 37-46, 2019
Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a permanent and irreversible dilation of the lower region of the aorta. It is typically an asymptomatic condition that if left untreated can expand to the point of rupture. Mechanically-speaking, rupture of an artery occurs when the local wall stress exceeds the local wall strength. It is therefore understandable that
