Importance of sac regression after EVAR and the role of EndoAnchors
J Cardiovasc Surg (Torino). 2024 Mar 29. doi: 10.23736/S0021-9509.24.12992-8. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe initial success and widespread adoption of endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) for the treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysms have been tempered by numerous reports of secondary interventions and increased long-term mortality compared with open repair. Over the past decade, several studies on postoperative sac dynamics after EVAR have suggested that the presence of sac regression is a benign feature with a favorable prognosis. Conversely, increasing sacs and even stable sacs can be indicators of more unstable sa...

Health Literacy and Disease Knowledge of Patients With Peripheral Arterial Disease or Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm: A Scoping Review
CONCLUSION: This scoping review revealed low health literacy and low disease knowledge in patients with AAA or PAD. Standardised health literacy assessment may contribute to improve communication strategies and decision aids to enhance patients' understanding and engagement in healthcare decisions, however further research is needed to prove its merits.PMID:38552837 | DOI:10.1016/j.ejvs.2024.03.040 (Source: PubMed: Eur J Vasc Endovasc ...)

The impact of endovascular stents types on perioperative outcomes of ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysms: a single-center experience
CONCLUSION: Our study suggests that the management of intraoperative complications may be a modifiable factor that can improve outcomes. Patients receiving Excluder treatment demonstrated better performance in EVAR for single-center rAAA patients compared to other endovascular stents, and this difference warrants further investigation.PMID:38545342 | PMC:PMC10965618 | DOI:10.3389/fcvm.2024.1272389 (Source: Atherosclerosis)

Liraglutide attenuates angiotensin II-induced aortic dissection and aortic aneurysm via inhibiting M1 macrophage polarization in APOE < sup > -/- < /sup > mice
CONCLUSION: Our study found liraglutide exhibits protective effects against AAD by modulating M1 macrophage polarization, suppressing CXCL3 expression through the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway. This makes it a promising therapeutic target for AAD, offering a new avenue in AAD management.PMID:38548245 | DOI:10.1016/j.bcp.2024.116170 (Source: Biochemical Pharmacology)
