Diabetes and aortic aneurysm: current state of the art
Cardiovascular Research, 2018 Aortic aneurysm is a life-threatening disease due to the risk of aortic rupture. The only curative treatment available relies on surgical approaches; drug-based therapies are lacking, highlighting an unmet need for clinical practice.

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

An HDAC9-MALAT1-BRG1 complex mediates smooth muscle dysfunction in thoracic aortic aneurysm
Nature Communications, 2018 Thoracic aortic aneurysm (TAA) has been associated with mutations affecting members of the TGF-β signaling pathway, or components and regulators of the vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) actomyosin cytoskeleton.

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2019 Thoracic aortic aneurysm (TAA) is the progressive enlargement of the aorta due to destructive changes in the connective tissue of the aortic wall. Aneurysm development is silent and often first manifested by the drastic events of aortic dissection or ...

Genes Associated with Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm and Dissection: 2018 Update and Clinical Implications
Aorta, 2018 Thoracic aortic aneurysms, with an estimated prevalence in the general population of 1%, are potentially lethal, via rupture or dissection. Over the prior two decades, there has been an exponential increase in our understanding of the genetics of ...

Comparison of existing aneurysm models and their path forward [PDF]
, 2020 The two most important aneurysm types are cerebral aneurysms (CA) and abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA), accounting together for over 80\% of all fatal aneurysm incidences. To minimise aneurysm related deaths, clinicians require various tools to accurately estimate its rupture risk. For both aneurysm types, the current state-of-the-art tools to evaluate

Delayed Presentation of a Giant Ascending Aortic Aneurysm following Aortic Valve Replacement
Case Reports in Medicine, 2009 Giant ascending aortic aneurysm formation following aortic valve replacement is rare. A 28-year-old man who underwent aortic valve replacement with a prosthetic valve for aortic regurgitation secondary to congenital bicuspid aortic valve about 10 years ...

Generation of Patient-specific Structured Hexahedral Mesh of Aortic Aneurysm Wall [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA) is an enlargement in the lower part of the main artery Aorta by 1.5 times its normal diameter. AAA can cause death if rupture occurs. Elective surgeries are recommended to prevent rupture based on geometrical measurements of AAA diameter and diameter growth rate.

Medial Hypoxia and Adventitial Vasa Vasorum Remodeling in Human Ascending Aortic Aneurysm
Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2018 Human ascending aortic aneurysms characteristically exhibit cystic medial degeneration of the aortic wall encompassing elastin degeneration, proteoglycan accumulation and smooth muscle cell loss. Most studies have focused on the aortic media and there is
