Intestinal Fatty Acid Binding Protein as a Predictor of Early Mesenteric Injury Preceding Clinical Presentation: A Case Report
Diagnosing non-occlusive mesenteric ischaemia (NOMI) in patients is complicated, due to poor signs and symptoms and non-specific laboratory tests, leading to high mortality. This case study presents a rare case of a patient who developed mesenteric ischaemia after an emergency thoracic endovascular aneurysm repair (TEVAR) for a type B aortic dissection (TBAD) and peri-operative cardiogenic shock. Study outcomes revealed that intestinal fatty acid binding protein (I-FABP) identified early mucosal damage 2 days before clinical presentation. (Source: EJVES Extra)

Frailty Predicts Prognosis After Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair
Objective: Recently, frailty has been shown to be an independent risk factor for predicting post-operative prognosis. The Canadian Study of Health and Aging Clinical Frailty Scale (CFS), used to define frail patients, was significantly associated with clinical outcomes after cardiovascular procedures. However, no reports exist on the relationship between frailty and thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) outcome. The effect of frailty on the prognosis of the patients who underwent TEVAR was evaluated. (Source: EJVES Extra)

Volumetric vs. Diametric Measurement in the Follow Up of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm After Endovascular Repair
Objective: The aim was to know whether volumetric analysis of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a more accurate method than maximum diameter measurement for the diagnosis of endoleak. Secondary objectives were to determine the cut off point of AAA volume that discriminates the existence of endoleak after EVAR and to analyse the influence of intraluminal thrombus (ITL) in the genesis of endoleak.

Potential Associations Between Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm, Smoking, and Air Pollution: A Data Visualisation Journey
Objective: The pathogenesis of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is complex with both environmental and genetic factors being implicated. Air pollution is involved in the development and severity of several pathologies, including cardiovascular diseases such as myocardial infarction or stroke, which account for more than half of the deaths attributed to air pollution. Outdoor air pollution is the second highest risk factor for non-communicable diseases. There is evidence that small particulate components of air pollution can make their way into the systemic circulation and have been demonstrated within the vessel wall at sit...

Influence of Clinical Status and Dissection Morphology on Transfusion Volume in Acute Aortic Dissection Surgery
Objective: Aortic dissection repair poses a high bleeding risk, owing to fragile aortic tissue and concomitant coagulopathy. Although patient blood management is important in cardiovascular surgery for resource saving, there are no guidelines regarding transfusion strategies for aortic dissection surgery. In a two part study, the influence of clinical status and dissection morphology on transfusion volume in patients with acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) was investigated. (Source: EJVES Extra)

A Multi-Professional Clinic for AAA (MPC-AAA): Does It benefit patients?
Objective: Abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) remain an important part of vascular practice. At the centre, a service improvement project to benefit patient experience, shared decision making, and efficiency in delivering care was undertaken. The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) guidelines and the Vascular Society of Great Britain and Ireland recommendations1,2 were looked at. This led to interventions in the local AAA treatment pathway. Here, the Multi-Professional Clinic (MPC) for AAA and its effects on the care of local AAA patients is described. (Source: EJVES Extra)

Time and Regional Trends in Hybrid Revascularisation for Patients With Lower Limb Ischaemia
Objective: Open revascularisation surgery for lower limb ischaemia carries significant risks to patients both in terms of morbidity and mortality, this is especially increasing with increasing age and comorbidities in this group of patients. Conversely, endovascular treatments have reduced morbidity and mortality, but it is not always possible to offer an endovascular solution to all the patients. Combining both open and endovascular treatments allows one to extend the treatment options for the patient with reduced morbidity, mortality, and length of stay. (Source: EJVES Extra)
