- The care of patients with an abdominal aortic aneurysm: the Society for Vascular Surgery practice guidelines. (2009, background): “Regardless of the nature of repair, a substantial portion of patients with AAA have underlying CAD and postoperative MI carries with it a substantially increased risk of death, as well as a high risk for later cardiovascular events and death.37,38 Thus, it is critical to minimize the risk of cardiac”
- Proteolytically active ADAM10 and ADAM17 carried on membrane microvesicles in human abdominal aortic aneurysms (2015, background): “Tobacco smoking remains the most important cause that vastly increases the risk of AAA (1), with advanced age, male gender, and heredity also contributing (2).”
- The Society for Vascular Surgery practice guidelines on the care of patients with an abdominal aortic aneurysm (2018, background): “Smoking cessation is the most important intervention for a patient with an aneurysm.(9,272,273,283,284)”
- The same sequence variant on 9p21 associates with myocardial infarction, abdominal aortic aneurysm and intracranial aneurysm (2008, background): “This concept was further investigated in the sample set from UK, where the subjects with small asymptomatic AAA had been followed with sequential aortic aneurysm size measurement”
- Analysis of risk factors for abdominal aortic aneurysm in a cohort of more than 3 million individuals. (2010, background): “Smoking is the major environmental risk factor for AAA, enhancing the chance of developing AAA as well as the risk of rupture.(14-16) With the current criteria for AAA screening, smoking is treated as a binary variable.”
