Prospective study of lung function and abdominal aortic aneurysm risk: The Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities study
2018, AtherosclerosisCitation Excerpt :Thus, it is important to identify populations with high risk of AAA. Some research has suggested that chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is associated with increased risks of AAA and its rupture [4–9]. A previous clinical cross-sectional study showed that this association was independent of smoking, and mediated by inflammation and hemostasis [9].
Lower prevalence than expected when screening 70-year-old men for abdominal aortic aneurysm
2013, European Journal of Vascular and Endovascular SurgeryFeasibility of Laser Doppler Vibrometry as potential diagnostic tool for patients with abdominal aortic aneurysms
2013, Journal of BiomechanicsCitation Excerpt :The most common site of these aneurysms is below the renal arteries (infrarenal). AAAs become an increasing health care problem, because of the proportional increase of aging population (Scott, 2002; Bengtsson et al., 1991). AAA rupture is associated with high mortality rates up to 75%.
