Objective To explore the related risk factors of aortic arch calcification (AoAC) and the relationship between AoAC and long-term outcome in maintenance hemodialysis patients.Methods The patients who underwent hemodialysis in the Blood Purification Center of Beijing Shijitan Hospital Affiliated to Capital...
CKD in combination with DM, as well as hypertension in combination with CKD, were key relationships affecting the risk of arterial calcification, especially at the aortic arch and its orifices. 展开 关键词: Arterial calcification Aortic arch Carotid bifurcation Chronic kidney disease Diabetes mellitus...
However, the association of the combination of aortic arch calcification (AoAC) and cardio-thoracic ratio (CTR) with clinical outcomes in patients with CKD is not well investigated. This study investigated whether the combination of AoAC and CTR is associated with poor clinical outcomes in CKD ...
Treatment of one or more of these systemic diseases can prevent late aortic valve (±aortic root) degeneration with/without calcification [13]. Aneurysm Aortic root dilatation with/without aortic regurgitation is the most observed pathological change of the aortic root, which is regularly diagnosed ...
Fig. 12. Patient with aortic dissection, status after aortic arch graft repair. Anatomic image from 4D flow data (A) showing anatomic narrowing at the graft anastomosis (white arrow, A). Pressure (B) and velocity (C) data showing less than 5 mm Hg drop across the stenosis with no signif...
Aortic arch calcification (AoAC) on chest X-rays represents systemic atherosclerosis and it is associated with ischemic cardiovascular diseases. However, the relationship between ischemic stroke and AoAC has yet to be fully elucidated. Patients with acute ischemic stroke who were undergoing chest X-ray...
Aortic arch calcification predicts cardiovascular and all-cause mortality in maintenance hemodialysis patients. Background/Aim: Vascular calcification is associated with cardiovascular risk in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients. Previous reports have shown that ... M Komatsu,M Okazaki,K Tsuchiya,......
A simple four-grade score for aortic arch calcification by posteroanterior chest X-ray is associated with cardiovascular disease in haemodialysis patientsdoi:10.1093/ndt/gfr087Nephrology, dialysis, transplantation : official publication of the European Dialysis and Transplant Association - European Renal ...
Calcification was quantified by calculating the Agatston, volume and mass score. Current analyses were performed in 600 subjects (mean age 74 years). The prevalences of calcification in the coronary and carotid arteries were higher in men compared to women. However, aortic arch calcification was ...
