Identification of immune-related signatures and pathogenesis differences between thoracic aortic aneurysm patients with bicuspid versus tricuspid valves via weighted gene co-expression network analysis.

PLoS ONE, 2023
BackgroundThoracic aortic aneurysm (TAA) occurs due to pathological aortal dilation, and both individuals with normal tricuspid aortic valves (TAV) or abnormal bicuspid aortic valves (BAV), the latter being a congenital condition, are at risk.

Femoral Anteversion Measured by the Surgical Transepicondylar Axis Is Correlated with the Tibial Tubercle–Roman Arch Distance in Patients with Lateral Patellar Dislocation

Medicina, 2023
Background and Objectives: Various predisposing factors for lateral patellar dislocation (LPD) have been identified, but the relation between femoral rotational deformity and the tibial tubercle–Roman arch (TT-RA) distance remains elusive.

Spectral characteristics of the internal jugular vein and central venous pressure pulses: a proof of concept study

Veins and Lymphatics, 2021
In this proof-of-concept study the impact of central venous pressure (CVP) on internal jugular veins cross-sectional area (CSA) and blood flow time-average velocity (TAV) was evaluated in eight subjects, with the aim of understanding the drivers of the ...

Pathological Investigation of Congenital Bicuspid Aortic Valve Stenosis, Compared with Atherosclerotic Tricuspid Aortic Valve Stenosis and Congenital Bicuspid Aortic Valve Regurgitation [PDF]

, 2016
Congenital bicuspid aortic valve (CBAV) is the main cause of aortic stenosis (AS) in young adults. However, the histopathological features of AS in patients with CBAV have not been fully investigated.We examined specimens of aortic valve leaflets ...

Noncanonical atherosclerosis as the driving force in tricuspid aortic valve associated aneurysms - A trace collection

Journal of Lipid Research, 2023
Pathogenic mechanisms in degenerative thoracic aortic aneurysms (TAA) are still unclear. There is an ongoing debate about whether TAAs are caused by uniform or distinct processes, which would obviously have a major impact on future treatment strategies ...
