Stenting of the aortic arch as an emergency palliation of aortic dissection after cardiac surgery in an infant [PDF]

, 2005
Aortic dissection with low cardiac output is an acute emergency and immediate therapy is mandatory. It is however a disease of the elderly. This article reports on an infant who developed acute aortic dissection following cardiac surgery, for whom ...

Role of False Lumen Area Ratio in Late Aortic Events After Acute Type I Aortic Dissection Repair [PDF]

, 2022
Background: The aim of this study was to investigate whether distal aortic maximum false lumen area (MFLA) ratio predicts late aortic dilation and reintervention after open repair of acute type I aortic dissection.

The polymorphisms in angiotensin-converting enzyme and angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 are not associated with thoracic aortic diseases and coronary heart disease

Proceedings of Singapore Healthcare, 2016
Introduction: The polymorphisms of the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) and angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) genes have been demonstrated to be involved in some cardiovascular diseases.

Increased Disarray of Extracellular Matrix Collagen‐I Fiber Network and Compromised Biomechanics in Aortae From Marfan‐Syndrome Mice Assessed Through Combined Opto‐Biomechatronics

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Combined structure‐function assessment in aortic rings from Marfan mice using MechaMorph Opto‐Biomechatronics technology relates increased elasticity (stiffness) and dynamic viscosity and less ordered extracellular matrix 3D‐structure (collagen) as potential causes for impaired Windkessel function and compromised haemodynamics in Marfan's syndrome ...

[Aortic aneurysms and aortic dissection : Epidemiology, pathophysiology and diagnostics.] [PDF]

, 2013
Aortic aneurysms and aortic dissection represent a significant health risk due to the demographic developments and current life styles. The mortality of ruptured aortic aneurysms is up to 80 % and the prevalence of aneurysms varies depending on the ...

Ilexoside K Ameliorates Atherosclerosis by Suppressing CD72hi Macrophages and Blocking CXCL12–CXCR4 Axis to Inhibit Endothelial Pyroptosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
CD72hi macrophages drive endothelial pyroptosis and accelerate atherosclerosis through CXCL12–CXCR4‐mediated immune–vascular crosstalk. Ilexoside K suppresses this pathogenic communication by modulating CXCR4‐dependent endothelial responses, reducing inflammation and plaque progression. These findings reveal a macrophage–endothelial regulatory axis and

Staged coil embolization after thoracic endovascular stent grafting for aneurysmal chronic type B aortic dissection: A case report

SAGE Open Medical Case Reports, 2019
We herein describe a 38-year-old woman with Marfan syndrome and chronic type A aortic dissection. Computed tomography showed that the sinus of Valsalva and thoracoabdominal aorta had a diameter of 62 and 55 mm, respectively.

NCOA4 Accelerates Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Formation by Regulating Macrophage Activation and Ferroptosis via STAT1–CH25H Axis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Under pathological stimulation, NCOA4 in macrophages interacts with STAT1 to promote CH25H transcription. The subsequent increase in 25‐HC production activates macrophages, triggers inflammatory responses and ferroptosis, and accelerates the progression of AAA.

Thoracic Aortic Dissection: Are Matrix Metalloproteinases Involved?

, 2009
Thoracic aortic dissection, one of the major diseases affecting the aorta, carries a very high mortality rate. Improving our understanding of the pathobiology of this disease may help us develop medical treatments to prevent dissection and subsequent ...

Checkpoint‐Directed Glycoengineering Reprograms the Vascular Lumen for Siglec‐Mediated Immune Regulation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Checkpoint‐directed glycoengineering installs sialylated ligands on the donor vascular lumen during ex vivo preservation, creating a localized Siglec‐7/9‐engaging interface. The engineered glycocalyx suppresses immune‐cell activation, complement deposition, and microvascular injury in arterial and kidney allografts while preserving endothelial ...
