Midterm Results of the STABILISE Technique in the Treatment of Aortic Dissection.
Vasc Endovascular Surg
December 2024
Baylor Scott and White Heart and Vascular Hospital, Dallas, TX, USA.
: Contemporary treatments of acute aortic dissection, including medical, surgical, and endovascular options, are remarkably effective at the management of malperfusion and rupture. Unfortunately, long-term studies indicate that 30%-50% of patients need secondary procedures to treat progressive aneurysmal enlargement of the untreated aorta. The Stent-assisted balloon-induced intimal disruption and relamination in aortic dissection repair (STABILISE) technique was introduced to improve long-term outcomes.

Introduction: The adverse health effects of sugar-sweetened beverage intake are well-established, but the implications of overall added sugar intake remain unclear. We investigated the associations between intake of added sugar and various sugar-sweetened foods and beverages and risk of 7 cardiovascular diseases in 69,705 participants aged 45-83 years (47.2% female) from the Swedish Mammography cohort and Cohort of Swedish men.

Objective: Low estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) increases the risk of arterial diseases, possibly including abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). This study explored the relationship between eGFR (2008 CKD-EPI equation), annual eGFR decline, and subsequent risk of developing AAA in a large, community based sample.
Methods: This was an observational study using complete healthcare records of Stockholm residents free from AAA who underwent routine creatinine testing during 2011 - 2021.
Nursing Home Admission and Home Care Initiation After Acute Aortic Dissection: A Nationwide Registry-Based Cohort Study.
Tex Heart Inst J
December 2024
Department of Cardiology, Aalborg University Hospital, Aalborg, Denmark.
Background: Little is known about long-term outcomes beyond survival following acute aortic dissection. The aim of this research was to evaluate rates of home care initiation and nursing home admission during the first year after discharge and to assess factors associated with these needs.
Methods: All patients in Denmark with a first-time diagnosis of acute aortic dissection type A or B between 2006 and 2015 were identified using national registries.
Current and Emerging Approaches to Imaging Large Vessel Vasculitis.

Article Synopsis
- Large vessel vasculitides (LVV) are inflammatory disorders that primarily affect large arteries like the aorta, often linked to conditions such as giant cell arteritis and Takayasu arteritis, with age and gender influencing prevalence.
- Giant cell arteritis commonly occurs in individuals over 50, especially women, while Takayasu arteritis typically affects younger women; both require urgent diagnosis to prevent serious complications like blindness or artery damage.
- Noninvasive imaging techniques, such as ultrasound and MRI, have revolutionized the diagnosis and management of LVV, reducing the need for invasive procedures and aiding in monitoring treatment response and disease progression.
