[Management of unruptured intracranial aneurysms].

This review aims at summarising, whether unruptured intracranial aneurysms (UIAs) should be managed by immediate closure or surveillance imaging. If small UIAs should receive immediate closure might be up for a paradigm shift. The most fatal consequence of a UIA is rupture, as it carries a high mortality and morbidity.

Diabetes and Abdominal Aortic Calcification-a Systematic Review.

Purpose Of Review: A systematic literature review was performed to evaluate diabetes mellitus (DM) as a risk factor of abdominal aortic calcification (AAC), and address factors that might contribute to the development of AAC in DM patients.

Recent Findings: DM is an independent risk factor of AAC development. Bone metabolism along with lifestyle factors among DM patients makes them more prone to AAC.
