A bibliometric analysis of abdominal aortic aneurysm (2014-2024).

Background: Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a localized bulge of the abdominal aorta, which mainly manifests as a pulsatile mass in the abdomen. Once an abdominal aortic aneurysm ruptures, the patient's life is seriously endangered. Surgery is the preferred treatment for abdominal aortic aneurysm.

Introduction: Balancing the well-documented benefits of regular exercise, particularly its positive impact on cardiovascular risk factors like hypertension, with the potential risks for patients with aortic aneurysms presents a significant challenge. This narrative review aims to summarize the current evidence and guidelines to assist clinicians in making informed exercise and sports recommendations for patients with aortic aneurysms or post-aortic repair.
Methods: Nine clinical trials on the effect of exercise on abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) were identified, including one study on cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) in AAA patients.
Long-Term Outcome of Elderly Patients with Severe Aortic Stenosis Undergoing a Tailored Interventional Treatment Using Frailty-Based Management: Beyond the Five-Year Horizon.

Elderly patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS) need individualized decision-making in their management in order to benefit in terms of survival and improvement of quality of life. Frailty, a common condition in elderly patients, needs to be considered when weighing treatment options. We aimed to evaluate outcomes including survival and functional parameters according to disability criteria at six years of follow-up in an older population treated for severe AS using a frailty-based management.

Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a significant vascular condition characterized by the dilation of the abdominal aorta, presenting a substantial risk of rupture and associated high mortality rates. Current management strategies primarily rely on aneurysm diameter and growth rates to predict rupture risk and determine the timing of surgical intervention. However, this approach has limitations, as ruptures can occur in smaller AAAs below surgical thresholds, and many large AAAs remain stable without intervention.

Introduction: Identifying peripheral arterial disease (PAD) remains challenging with currently used bedside tests. The maximal systolic acceleration (ACC) is a promising noninvasive parameter measured by duplex ultrasonography and reflects the arterial perfusion proximal to its measurement point. The principal aim of this study was to analyze the diagnostic accuracy of the ACC for detecting significant stenosis in different arterial segments, which could be useful in clinical decision-making.
