Incidental Cardiovascular Abnormalities in the Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA) Surveillance Population During the AAA Get Fit Trial: A Case Series and Review of the Literature.

Background The prevalence of cardiovascular disease and incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) is very high among the abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) surveillance population. Formal assessments of and interventions to reduce cardiovascular risk are not a routine part of the surveillance programme at present. However, its potential importance is highlighted by incidental findings during the AAA Get Fit Trial, a randomised controlled trial which included baseline cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET).

Brace for Impact: A Retrospective Analysis of the Modified Broström-Gould Procedure With and Without Internal Brace Augmentation.

Background Chronic lateral ankle instability (CLAI) is caused by lateral ankle ligament weakness or rupture secondary to recurrent sprains. The surgical management has traditionally involved a modified Broström-Gould (MBG) procedure with or without internal brace (IB) augmentation. This study aims to demonstrate the improved outcomes for patients undergoing an MBG procedure with IB augmentation for CLAI.
