Ascending aorta to bifemoral bypass—a ventral aorta

open access: yesJournal of Vascular Surgery, 1986
In the decade since April 1975 we accumulated a series of 18 patients with arterial conduits from the ascending aorta to the femoral arteries, 10 men aged 53 to 75 years (mean, 60 years) and eight women aged 33 to 56 years (mean, 50 years). In the first two patients, the conduit was placed subcutaneously; in the remaining 16 patients, it was placed ...

Inflammatory aneurysm of the ascending aorta [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 2006
Inflammatory aneurysms of the aorta are usually seen in the infrarenal abdominal aorta and very rarely in the ascending aorta. We present the case of a 76-year-old male with inflammatory aneurysm of the ascending aorta.

Angiotensin II blockade and aortic-root dilation in Marfan's syndrome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Background: Progressive enlargement of the aortic root, leading to dissection, is the main cause of premature death in patients with Marfan's syndrome. Recent data from mouse models of Marfan's syndrome suggest that aortic-root enlargement is caused by ...

NFS1 Regulates IDH2 to Attenuate Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms via Interacting With SP2

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The loss of NFS1 leads to its reduced binding with the transcription factor SP2, resulting in decreased expression of the downstream gene Idh2. This causes a shift in energy supply toward glycolysis in VSMCs, ultimately contributing to the occurrence and progression of AAA.

Association of Cystic Medial Necrosis of the Aorta and Undiagnosed Thyroiditis [Scripta Medica] [PDF]

open access: yes, 1977
We have recently seen two patients with cystic medial necrosis of the aorta. The first patient died of a dissecting aneurysm of the thoracic aorta. At autopsy, classical Hashimoto’s thyroiditis was discovered.

Dynamics of the Mammalian Placental Metabolome in Placentogenesis and Embryonic Development

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies three metabolic stages (E8.5, E9.5–10.5, E11.5–14.5) and two transition periods (E8.5–9.5, E10.5–11.5) in mouse placental development. NAD(H) emerges as a key dynamic metabolite that enhances embryonic growth through accelerated segmentation and increased proliferation of mouse embryonic stem cell (mESC)‐induced presomitic ...

Evaluation of Distensibility and Stiffness of Ascending Aortic Aneurysm using Magnetic Resonance Imaging

open access: yesJournal of Nepal Medical Association, 2016
Introduction: Magnetic resonance imaging emerging as a new tool for the diagnosis and evaluation of ascending aortic aneurysm. The aim of our study is to evaluate in vivo distensibility and pulse wave velocity of the aortic wall using functional magnetic

Tuberculous pseudoaneurysm of the ascending aorta [PDF]

open access: yesBMJ Case Reports, 2015
Increase in the incidence of drug resistance and association with HIV has led to a resurgence of tuberculosis. However, tubercular arteritis continues to remain a rare entity with a prelidection for the thoracic aorta. We report a tubercular ascending aortic pseudoaneurysm in a patient already on treatment for disseminated tuberculosis who underwent ...
