Procedural and long-term outcomes of elective endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair in octogenarians
CONCLUSION: In octogenarian patients with AAA, EVAR represents a safe procedure both during the index hospitalization and during long-term follow-up.PMID:37355984 | DOI:10.24875/ACM.22000289

Vascular Surgery in Low and Middle Income Countries: A State-of-the-Art Review
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) represents 32% of all global deaths. Studies have shown an increase in CVD prevalence and mortality with the most substantial increase in low- and middle- income countries (LMIC). Within LMICs, we sought to 1) measure the burden of CVD with respect to aortic aneurysm (AA), ischemic stroke (IS), and peripheral artery disease (PAD); 2) quantify surgical access to vascular surgery services; 3) identify challenges and solutions to addressing disparities.

Blood phytosterols in relation to cardiovascular diseases and mediating effects of blood lipids and hematological traits: a Mendelian randomization analysis
CONCLUSION: The study suggests that genetic predisposition to higher blood total sitosterol is linked to a greater risk of major CVDs. Moreover, blood nonHDL-C and apolipoprotein B might mediate a significant proportion of the associations between sitosterol and coronary diseases.PMID:37270173 | DOI:10.1016/j.metabol.2023.155611

Surgical implementation gap: an interrupted time series analysis with interviews examining the impact of surgical trials on surgical practice in England
Conclusion While practice does not always change in the direction indicated by clinical trials, our results suggest that individuals, official committees and professional societies do assimilate trial evidence. Decision-makers seem to respond to the totality of evidence such that there are often plausible reasons for not adopting the evidence of any one trial in isolation.

High prevalence of abdominal aortic aneurysm in older men with cerebrovascular disease: Evaluation of a local screening program
This report evaluates the results of a decade's operation of a local screening program for AAA in this selected neurologic population.MethodsMen aged ≥60 years and admitted to the neurology ward of a community-based hospital in the Netherlands from 2006 to 2017 with a diagnosis of TIA or stroke were selected for screening. The diameter of the abdominal aorta was assessed by abdominal ultrasonography. Patients with detected AAA were referred for evaluation by a vascular surgeon.ResultsAAA was detected in 72 of 1,035 screened patients (6.9%). AAAs with a diameter of 3.0–3.9 cm accounted for 61.1% of the total aneurysms f...

Outcomes of aortic arch repair using the frozen elephant trunk technique: analysis of a Scandinavian center's results over 14 years
CONCLUSIONS: Despite the advantages of the FET technique, repair of extensive aortic arch disease remains associated with high rates of mortality and major neurologic complications. FET repair of CAD induces favorable remodeling in the thoracic aorta.PMID:36987817 | DOI:10.23736/S0021-9509.23.12490-6

Mortality before and after reconfiguration of the Danish hospital-based emergency healthcare system: a nationwide interrupted time series analysis
Conclusions The Danish emergency care reconfiguration programme was not associated with an improvement in overall in-hospital mortality trends and was associated with a slight slowing of prior improvements in 30-day mortality trends.

Clonal Hematopoiesis and the Heart: a Toxic Relationship
Curr Oncol Rep. 2023 Mar 15. doi: 10.1007/s11912-023-01398-1. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPURPOSE OF REVIEW: Clonal hematopoiesis (CH) refers to the expansion of hematopoietic stem cell clones and their cellular progeny due to somatic mutations, mosaic chromosomal alterations (mCAs), or copy number variants which naturally accumulate with age. CH has been linked to increased risk of blood cancers, but CH has also been linked to adverse cardiovascular outcomes.RECENT FINDINGS: A combination of clinical outcome studies and mouse models have offered strong evidence that CH mutations either correlate with or cause atheroscle...

Outcomes of endovascular repair of infrarenal penetrating aortic ulcers
Conclusions: According to this registry data, endovascular repair of PAU is technically feasible with acceptable perioperative outcomes, but further studies investigating mid- and long-term data are needed before invasive treatment of PAU disease in an elderly and comorbid patient population should be recommended.PMID:36880201 | DOI:10.1024/0301-1526/a001060
