Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) rupture is an important cause of death in adults. Currently, the only treatment for AAA is open or endovascular surgical repair. In most parts of the developed world, AAAs can be identified at an early stage as a result of incidental imaging and screening progr...
Our data suggests that the aneurysmal disease may progress from occlusive disease and is accompanied by an increase in chronic inflammatory cells as well as a redistribution of these cell types. Therefore it is suggested that aneurysmal disease may represent an immune-mediated event. 展开 ...

Abdominal aortic aneurysm(AAA) is defined as a permanent segmental dilatation of theabdominal aorta. Despite improvement in the surgical treatment and perioperative care, AAA is among the 15 leading causes of death in the USA (Hallett, 2000). The expression of miR-143/145 was suppressed by s...

38 In our study, a logistic regression model suggested that mortality rates were lower after AAA repair in large, highly affiliated hospitals than in all other hospital types, despite the greater complexity of the patients treated. CONCLUSION Despite the shortcomings of this study, outcome studies ...
