Aortic Dissection is Determined by Specific Shape and Hemodynamic Interactions

Jessica G. Williams et al.

Summary: This study investigates the correlation between specific three-dimensional aortic shape features, extracted via statistical shape analysis (SSA), and the development of thoracic ascending aortic dissection (TAAD) risk and associated aortic hemodynamics. The results found that PLS-DA was effective at separating dissection and no-dissection patients, with decreased tortuosity and more equal ascending and descending aortic diameters associated with higher dissection risk.

Association of Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm Size With Long-term Patient Outcomes The KP-TAA Study

Matthew D. Solomon et al.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the association between TAA size and outcomes in nonsyndromic patients. The study found that the absolute risk of TAA was low but increased with larger aortic sizes. The results support current consensus guidelines recommending prophylactic surgery in nonsyndromic individuals with TAA at a 5.5-cm threshold.

Regional biomechanical and failure properties of healthy human ascending aorta and root

Yue Xuan et al.

Summary: The study focused on the regional failure properties of the healthy human ascending aorta, with an emphasis on experimental biomechanical properties and analysis of results. The experiment revealed the most vulnerable region to be the STJ area, consistent with clinical observations. Additionally, there was a significant correlation between failure stresses and elastic moduli.

Protocol for a randomised controlled trial for Treatment in Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm: Surgery versus Surveillance (TITAN: SvS)

Ming Hao Guo et al.

Summary: Ascending thoracic aortic aneurysm (ATAA) is an asymptomatic condition with potential catastrophic events if left untreated. This study compares outcomes of early elective ascending aortic surgery and medical surveillance in patients with ATAA diameters between 5.0 cm and 5.4 cm. The primary outcome is all-cause mortality during follow-up, with a sample size of 618 subjects to achieve statistical power.
