Sex-related disparities in intervention rates and type of intervention in patients with aortic and peripheral arterial diseases in the National Inpatient Sample Database

Katharine L. McGinigle et al.

Summary: The study revealed that from 2000 to 2016 in the United States, women were less likely than men to undergo intervention for AAA and PAD. This finding is particularly crucial for PAD, where women are potentially undertreated despite the same disease prevalence. Additionally, women were less likely to undergo endovascular surgery for AAA, but more likely for PAD, compared to men.

Symptomatic and asymptomatic peripheral artery disease and the risk of abdominal aortic aneurysm: The Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) study

Caitlin W. Hicks et al.

Summary: The study found that both symptomatic and asymptomatic peripheral artery disease are associated with an elevated risk of abdominal aortic aneurysm. The findings suggest the need for screening asymptomatic PAD patients for AAA, in addition to current recommendations for screening symptomatic PAD patients.
