Meta-Analysis of Genome-Wide Association Studies for Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Identifies Four New Disease-Specific Risk Loci

Gregory T. Jones, +123 more
- 20 Jan 2017 - 
TL;DR: The 4 new risk loci for AAA seem to be specific for AAA compared with other cardiovascular diseases and related traits suggesting that traditional cardiovascular risk factor management may only have limited value in preventing the progression of aneurysmal disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

A variant in LDLR is associated with abdominal aortic aneurysm.

TL;DR: Low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) rs6511720 A was significantly associated overall and in 3 of 5 individual replication studies, consistent with established effects of this variant on coronary artery disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Correction: Aortic dissection

TL;DR: Nature Reviews Disease Primers 2, 16053 (2016) in error: Michael P. Jenkins was incorrectly stated as Michael T. Jenkins.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Effect of Left Subclavian Artery Coverage in Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair.

TL;DR: Analyzing a varied patient cohort, there are nonstatistically significant trends that favor left subclavian artery revascularization in preventing stroke and spinal cord ischemia and that was significant in reducing arm-related ischemies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Preoperative morphology influences thoracic aortic aneurysm sac expansion after endovascular repair

TL;DR: The aim of this study was to characterize the incidence of aneurysm sac expansion after TEVAR, and to determine the effect of anuerysm morphology on postoperative sac behaviour.
