Impact of the first 5 years of a national abdominal aortic aneurysm screening programme

open access: yesBritish Journal of Surgery, 2016
The Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA) Screening Programme was introduced by the National Health Service (NHS) in England to reduce the rate of death from ruptured AAA in men. The programme commenced in 2009 and was implemented completely across the country

Prevalenceof abdominal aortic aneurysm among stage 3-4 chronic kidney disease patients aged 55 years and older

open access: yesУкраїнський Журнал Нефрології та Діалізу, 2020
The risk of cardiovascular disease begins to increase from the early stages of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Abdominal aortic aneurysms are the most common arterial aneurysms of peripheral arterial diseases.

Neural operator learning of heterogeneous mechanobiological insults contributing to aortic aneurysms [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
Thoracic aortic aneurysm (TAA) is a localized dilatation of the aorta resulting from compromised wall composition, structure, and function, which can lead to life-threatening dissection or rupture. Several genetic mutations and predisposing factors that contribute to TAA have been studied in mouse models to characterize specific changes in aortic ...

Loss of function mutation in LOX causes thoracic aortic aneurysm and dissection in humans

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2016
Significance The mechanical integrity of the arterial wall is dependent on a properly structured ECM. Elastin and collagen are key structural components of the ECM, contributing to the stability and elasticity of normal arteries.

Simple Renal Cysts as Markers of Thoracic Aortic Disease

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2016
BackgroundThoracic aortic aneurysm is usually a clinically silent disease; timely detection is largely dependent upon identification of clinical markers of thoracic aortic disease (TAD); (bicuspid aortic valve, intracranial aortic aneurysm, bovine aortic

Genes Associated with Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm and Dissection

open access: yesAorta, 2017
Thoracic aortic aneurysm (TAA) is a lethal disease, with a natural history of enlarging progressively until dissection or rupture occurs. Since the discovery almost 20 years ago that ascending TAAs are highly familial, our understanding of the genetics ...

Disruption of Osteoprotegerin has complex effects on medial destruction and adventitial fibrosis during mouse abdominal aortic aneurysm formation.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
Aortic aneurysm refers to dilatation of the aorta due to loss of elasticity and degenerative weakening of its wall. A preventive role for osteoprotegerin (Opg) in the development of abdominal aortic aneurysm has been reported in the CaCl2-induced ...

Abdominal aortic aneurysms and endovascular sealing: deformation and dynamic response [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2017
Endovascular sealing is a new technique for the repair of abdominal aortic aneurysms. Commercially available in Europe since~2013, it takes a revolutionary approach to aneurysm repair through minimally invasive techniques. Although aneurysm sealing may be thought as more stable than conventional endovascular stent graft repairs, post-implantation ...
