RESUMEN

Acute aortic dissection (AAD) progresses rapidly and is associated with high mortality; therefore, there remains an urgent need for pharmacological agents that can protect against AAD. Herein, we examined the therapeutic effects of cannabidiol (CBD) in AAD by establishing a suitable mouse model. In addition, we performed human AAD single-cell RNA sequencing and mouse AAD bulk RNA sequencing to elucidate the potential underlying mechanism of CBD. Pathological assays and in vitro studies were performed to verify the results of the bioinformatic analysis and explore the pharmacological function of CBD. In a ß-aminopropionitrile (BAPN)-induced AAD mouse model, CBD reduced AAD-associated morbidity and mortality, alleviated abnormal enlargement of the ascending aorta and aortic arch, and suppressed macrophage infiltration and vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) apoptosis. Bioinformatic analysis revealed that the pro-apoptotic gene PMAIP1 was highly expressed in human and mouse AAD samples, and CBD could inhibit Pmaip1 expression in AAD mice. Using human aortic VSMCs (HAVSMCs) co-cultured with M1 macrophages, we revealed that CBD alleviated HAVSMCs mitochondrial-dependent apoptosis by suppressing the BAPN-induced overexpression of PMAIP1 in M1 macrophages. PMAIP1 potentially mediates HAVSMCs apoptosis by regulating Bax and Bcl2 expression. Accordingly, CBD reduced AAD-associated morbidity and mortality and mitigated the progression of AAD in a mouse model. The CBD-induced effects were potentially mediated by suppressing macrophage infiltration and PMAIP1 (primarily expressed in macrophages)-induced VSMC apoptosis. Our findings offer novel insights into M1 macrophages and HAVSMCs interaction during AAD progression, highlighting the potential of CBD as a therapeutic candidate for AAD treatment.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVES: The study aimed to investigate the interaction of intraoperative stress hyperglycemia with monocyte functions and their impact on major adverse events (MAEs) in acute aortic dissection (AAD) patients who underwent open repair surgery. METHODS: A total of 321 adults who underwent open surgery for AAD at two tertiary medical centers in China were enrolled in the study. The primary endpoint was defined as the incidence and characteristics of perioperative stress hyperglycemia. The secondary endpoints included the incidence of postoperative MAEs, postoperative monocyte counts and inflammatory cytokine expression. Multi-logistic, linear regression and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analyses were used to establish relationships between intraoperative time-weighted average glucose (TWAG), day-one postoperative monocyte counts, serum inflammatory cytokines and postoperative outcomes. In addition, in vitro experiments were conducted to evaluate changes in the inflammatory features of monocytes under high glucose conditions. RESULTS: Intraoperative hyperglycemia, as indicated by a TWAG level over 142 mg/dL, was associated with elevated postoperative monocyte counts and inflammatory cytokines, which correlated with extended intensive care unit (ICU) stays and worsened outcomes. In vitro, high glucose treatment induced mitochondrial impairment in monocytes, increased the release of inflammatory cytokines and the proportion of classical monocytes from AAD patients. CONCLUSIONS: Intraoperative stress hyperglycemia, in combination with day-one postoperative monocyte counts, were clinically significant for predicting adverse outcomes in AAD patients undergoing open repair surgery. Elevated glucose concentrations shaped the inflammatory features of monocytes in AAD by impairing mitochondrial functions.

RESUMEN

INTRODUCTION: We examined the association of socioeconomic status as defined by median household income quartile (MHIQ) with mortality and readmission patterns following open repair of acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) in a nationally representative registry. METHODS: Adults who underwent open repair of ATAAD were selected using the US Nationwide Readmissions Database and stratified by MHIQ. Patients were selected based on diagnostic and procedural codes. The primary endpoint was 30-d readmission. RESULTS: Between 2016 and 2019, 10,288 individuals (65% male) underwent open repair for ATAAD. Individuals in the lowest income quartile were younger (median: 60 versus 64, P < 0.05) but had greater Elixhauser comorbidity burden (5.9 versus 5.7, P < 0.05). Across all groups, in-hospital mortality was approximately 15% (P = 0.35). On multivariable analysis adjusting for baseline comorbidity burden, low socioeconomic status was associated with increased readmission at 90 d, but not at 30 d. Concomitant renal disease (odds ratio [OR], 1.68; P < 0.001), pulmonary disease (OR, 1.26; P < 0.001), liver failure (OR 1.2, P = 0.04), and heart failure (OR, 1.17; P < 0.001) were all associated with readmission at 90 d. The primary indication for readmission was most commonly cardiac (33%), infectious (16.5%), and respiratory (9%). CONCLUSIONS: In patients who undergo surgery for ATAAD, lower MHIQ was associated with higher odds of readmission following open repair. While early readmission for individuals living in the lowest income communities is likely attributable to greater baseline comorbidity burden, we observed that 90-d readmission rates are associated with lower MHIQ regardless of comorbidity burden. Further investigation is required to determine which patient-level and system-level interventions are needed to reduce readmissions in the immediate postoperative period for resource poor areas.

RESUMEN

INTRODUCTION: The treatment of acute type B aortic dissection (ATBAD) is currently a challenge for vascular surgeons, because of the early morbidity and mortality rates and the high risk of late aortic events up to 50% at 5 years. This study presents the initial outcomes of ATBAD treatment using optimal medical therapy alone or combined with proximal entry tear stent-graft coverage. Additionally, it provides an analysis of the evolution of the aortic diameter and its clinical consequences during the chronic phase in each group. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Conducted as a retrospective, single-center study, we enrolled all consecutive ATBAD patients (n=130) treated between 2008 and 2020. The primary analysis studies the entire patient cohort based on their initial management approach, namely, medical treatment alone for uncomplicated ATBAD (n=67) or combined with stent-graft entry tear coverage (n=63). We also conducted a subgroup analysis to investigate factors associated with disease progression in the medical management group. RESULTS: Median follow-up was 29.5 months. During this time aneurysmal evolution was observed in: 42.4% of cases in the medical group compared with 21.8% in the stent-graft group, primarily affecting the thoracic aorta. The stent-graft group exhibited significant aortic remodeling, with a decrease in false lumen (FL) and thoracic aortic diameters. Initial aortic diameter ≥40 mm and FL ≥22 mm were independent risk factors for aneurysmal degeneration. Five-year survival was consistent at 76.1% in both groups. CONCLUSION: This study confirms the safety and efficacy of stent-graft entry tear coverage for ATBAD. Initial thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) appears to reduce late aortic events by promoting aortic remodeling. Considering TEVAR's safety and potential to prevent late aortic complications, it may be considered for uncomplicated ATBAD patients with an initial aortic diameter ≥40 mm or an FL ≥22 mm. CLINICAL IMPACT: This study validates the efficacy and safety of using endovascular stent grafts to seal the proximal entry tear in cases of acute type B aortic dissections, compared to optimal medical therapy. Aortic remodelling significantly benefits from endovascular stent graft coverage of the proximal entry tear. Given the heightened risk of late aortic events observed in the medical therapy cohort, there appears to be a necessity for including endovascular interventions in the management of uncomplicated acute type B aortic dissections, particularly when aortic diameter is ≥40 mm and false lumen diameter is ≥22 mm.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Acute aortic dissection (AAD) has high morbidity and a high fatality rate for a cardiovascular disease. Recent studies suggested that the incidence of AAD is increasing. However, the actual incidence and mortality rates of AAD are not well known. This study investigated the current epidemiology of AAD within the Yatsushiro medical jurisdictional area.Methods and Results: A population-based review of patients with AAD was performed in a geographically well-defined area. Data were collected retrospectively from January 2011 to December 2020 for a total of 196 patients with AAD (Stanford Type A, n=126 [64.3%]; Stanford Type B, n=70 [35.7%]). The mean patient age was 74.3 years, and 55.6% (109/196) were women. The crude and age-standardized incidence rates of AAD in our medical jurisdictional area were 13.6 and 11.4 per 100,000 inhabitants per year, respectively. The crude and age-standardized 30-day mortality rates of AAD were 4.9 and 4.0 per 100,000 inhabitants per year, respectively. There were upward tendencies for both the incidence and 30-day mortality rate of AAD with age, with both being significantly higher in patients aged ≥85 years (P<0.001). CONCLUSIONS: This population-based study detected a higher incidence of AAD than previous studies, but reported a lower incidence of AAD in men than in women. Increasing age was associated with an increased incidence and mortality rate of AAD.

RESUMEN

PURPOSE: This study was aimed to identify the risk factors that influence the mortality risk in patients with acute aortic dissection (AAD) within one year after discharge, and aimed to construct a predictive model for assessing mortality risk. METHODS: The study involved 320 adult patients obtained from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care (MIMIC) database. Logistic regression analysis was conducted to identify potential risk factors associated with mortality in AAD patients within one year after discharge and to develop a predictive model. The performance of the predictive model was assessed using the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC), calibration curve, and decision curve analysis (DCA). To further validate the findings, patient data from the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University (157 patients) were analyzed. RESULTS: Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses revealed that gender, length of hospital stay, highest blood urea nitrogen (BUN_max), use of adrenaline, and use of amiodarone were significant risk factors for mortality within one year after discharge (p < 0.05). The constructed model exhibited a consistency index (C-index) and an area under the ROC curve of 0.738. The calibration curve and DCA demonstrated that these indicators had a good degree of agreement and utility. The external validation results of the model also indicated good predictability (AUC = 0.700, p < 0.05). CONCLUSION: The personalized scoring prediction model constructed by gender, length of hospital stays, BUN_max levels, as well as the use of adrenaline and amiodarone, can effectively identify AAD patients with high mortality risk within one year after discharge.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVES: This study aims to retrospectively analyze the clinical features of Stanford type A acute aortic dissection (TAAAD) based on Sun's modified classification, and to investigate whether the Sun's modified classification can be used to assess the risk of preoperative rupture. METHODS: Clinical data was collected between January 2018 and June 2019. Data included patient demographics, history of disease, type of dissection according to the Sun's modified classification, time of onset, biochemical tests, and preoperative rupture. RESULTS: A total of 387 patients with TAAAD who met the inclusion criteria of Sun's modified classification were included. There were more complex types, with 75, 151 and 140 patients in the type A1C, A2C and A3C groups, respectively. The age of the entire group of patients was 51.46 ± 12.65 years and 283 (73.1%) were male. The time from onset to the emergency room was 25.37 ± 30.78 h. There were a few cases of TAAAD combined with stroke, pericardial effusion, pleural effusion, and lower extremity and organ ischemia in the complex type group. The white blood cell count (WBC), neutrophil count (NEC) and blood amylase differed significantly between the groups. Three independent risk factors for preoperative rupture were identified: neutrophil count, blood potassium ion level, and platelet count. Binary logistic regression analysis showed that the Sun's modified classification could not be used to assess the risk of preoperative rupture in TAAAD. CONCLUSION: TAAAD was classified as the complex type in most patients. WBC, NEC and blood amylase were significantly different between the groups. NEC and serum potassium ion level were independent risk factors for preoperative rupture of TAAAD, while platelet count was its protective factor. More samples are needed to determine whether Sun's modified classification can be used to evaluate the risk of preoperative rupture.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Acute Type A Aortic Dissection (AAAD) is one of the most life-threatening diseases, often associated with transient hyperglycemia induced by acute physiological stress. The impact of stress-induced hyperglycemia on the prognosis of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction has been reported. However, the relationship between stress-induced hyperglycemia and the prognosis of AAAD patients remains uncertain. METHODS: The clinical data of 456 patients with acute type A aortic dissection were retrospectively reviewed. Patients were divided into two groups based on their admission blood glucose. Cox model regression analysis was performed to assess the relationship between stress-induced hyperglycemia and the 30-day and 1-year mortality rates of these patients. RESULTS: Among the 456 patients, 149 cases (32.7%) had AAAD combined with stress-induced hyperglycemia (SIH). The results of the multifactor regression analysis of the Cox model indicated that hyperglycemia (RR = 1.505, 95% CI: 1.046-2.165, p = 0.028), aortic coarctation involving renal arteries (RR = 3.330, 95% CI: 2.237-4.957, p < 0.001), aortic coarctation involving superior mesenteric arteries (RR = 1.611, 95% CI: 1.056-2.455, p = 0.027), and aortic coarctation involving iliac arteries (RR = 2.034, 95% CI: 1.364-3.035, p = 0.001) were independent influences on 1-year postoperative mortality in AAAD patients. CONCLUSION: The current findings indicate that stress-induced hyperglycemia measured on admission is strongly associated with 1-year mortality in patients with AAAD. Furthermore, stress-induced hyperglycemia may be related to the severity of the condition in patients with AAAD.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Bleeding after surgery on the thoracic aorta is a frequent complication, and can be associated with a significant increase in morbidity and mortality. Recombinant activated factor VII (rFVIIa) was developed initially for treating patients with hemophilia; however, it has been used increasingly "off-label" to achieve hemostasis after thoracic aortic procedures. OBJECTIVE: This scoping review aimed to present the available literature on the role of rFVIIa in the management of refractory postoperative bleeding after thoracic aortic surgery. METHODS/RESULTS: An electronic database search was conducted using Medline, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Google Scholar in June 2023. The authors included studies that reported the use of rFVIIa in patients undergoing surgical repair of ascending or descending aortic aneurysm or dissection. Single-case reports were excluded. Ten publications with a pooled number of 649 patients (319 patients received rFVIIa and 330 in the control groups) were identified: 3 case series, 6 retrospective studies, and 1 nonrandomized clinical trial. All studies reported the potential role of rFVIIa in correcting coagulopathy and reducing postoperative blood loss in this group of patients. Overall, there was not enough evidence to suggest that rFVIIa was associated with higher rates of thromboembolic complications or mortality. CONCLUSION: Limited evidence suggests that rFVIIa may be useful in managing postoperative refractory bleeding in patients undergoing thoracic aortic surgery. However, the impact of rFVIIa on thromboembolic complications and mortality rates remains unclear.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the efficacy of early prone position ventilation in the treatment of severe hypoxemia after surgery for acute type A aortic dissection (TAAD). METHODS: The patients were divided into a control group and a treatment group. Parameters assessed included blood gas analysis indicators [arterial oxygen partial pressure (PaO2). RESULTS: (1) Blood gas analysis: Before treatment, there was no significant difference in PaO2, SpO2, and OI levels between the two groups; after treatment, the PaO2, SpO2, and OI levels in both groups significantly increased compared to pre-treatment, with a more pronounced improvement in the treatment group than in the control group (p < 0.05). (2) Hemodynamics: Before treatment, there was no significant difference in MAP and HR levels between the two groups; after treatment, the MAP levels increased significantly in both groups compared to pre-treatment, while HR levels decreased significantly, with no significant difference between the groups. (3) Prognosis recovery: MV time, ICU stay, and total hospital stay were significantly lower in the treatment group than in the control group; the 30-day mortality rate was 14.58% in the control group and 12.50% in the treatment group, with no significant difference in 30-day mortality rate between the groups. CONCLUSION: Early prone position ventilation has shown promising application in the treatment of severe hypoxemia after TAAD surgery. Compared to traditional supine position ventilation, the use of early prone position ventilation can further improve blood gas analysis indicators in patients, and shorten MV time, ICU stay, and total hospital stay, thereby accelerating patient recovery.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Acute type A aortic dissection necessitates rapid and effective arterial cannulation techniques for optimal outcomes. This meta-analysis compares the safety and effectiveness of direct aortic cannulation (AoC) with peripheral cannulation (PC) via the femoral or axillary arteries in aortic surgery for acute type A aortic dissection. METHODS: A systematic review following PRISMA guidelines identified 10 retrospective studies encompassing 2518 patients (961 AoC, 1557 PC). Pooled odds ratios (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated to analyze perioperative characteristics, short-term mortality rates, and postoperative complications including stroke and acute kidney injury. RESULTS: Short-term mortality did not significantly differ between AoC and PC (OR [95% CI] = 0.78 [0.61-1.01], p = .06). Likewise, postoperative stroke (OR [95% CI] = 0.86 [0.63-1.17], p = .33) nor acute kidney injury (OR [95% CI] = 1.11 [0.89-1.37], p = .35) showed no significant differences. AoC exhibited shorter operation time whereas there were no significant differences in aortic cross clamp time and cardiopulmonary bypass time between both groups. Our meta-regression analysis, considering the distal extent of aortic replacement, indicated that variations in aortic replacement rates did not significantly impact the observed outcomes. CONCLUSION: AoC is a viable alternative to PC for acute type A aortic dissection. While both approaches offer comparable outcomes, AoC's advantage in shorter operation time warrants thoughtful consideration in clinical practice.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To report outcomes of total arch replacement (TAR) with hypothermic circulatory arrest and bilateral antegrade cerebral perfusion (bACP) using an "arch first" approach for acute Type A aortic dissection (ATAAD). The "arch first" approach involved revascularization of the aortic arch branch vessels with uninterrupted ACP, before lower body circulatory arrest, while the patient was cooling. METHODS: This was an observational study of aortic surgeries from 2010 to 2021. All patients who underwent TAR with bACP for ATAAD were included. Short-term and long-term outcomes were reported utilizing descriptive statistics and Kaplan-Meier survival estimation. RESULTS: A total of 215 patients were identified who underwent TAR + bACP for ATAAD. Age was 59.0 [49.0-67.0] years and 35.3% were female. 73 patients (34.0%) underwent a concomitant aortic root replacement, 188 (87.4%) had aortic cannulation, circulatory arrest time was 37.0 [26.0-52.0] minutes, and nadir temperature was 20.8 [19.4-22.5] degrees Celsius. 35 patients (16.3%) had operative mortality (STS definition), 17 (7.9%) had a new stroke, 79 (36.7%) had prolonged mechanical ventilation (>24 h), 35 (16.3%) had acute renal failure (by RIFLE criteria), and 128 (59.5%) had blood product transfusions. One-year survival was 77.1%, while 5-years survival was 67.1%. During follow-up, there were 23 (10.7%) reinterventions involving the descending thoracic aorta - either thoracic endovascular aortic repair or open thoracoabdominal aortic replacement. CONCLUSIONS: Among patients with ATAAD, short-term postoperative outcomes after TAR + bACP using the "arch first" approach are acceptable. Moreover, this operative strategy may furnish long-term durability, with a reasonably low reintervention rate and satisfactory overall survival.

RESUMEN

This study aimed to evaluate the safety and necessity of antithrombotic drugs for acute type B aortic dissection (TBAD) treated with thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR).The patients of acute TBAD treated with TEVAR were retrospectively enrolled from January 2007 to October 2022 in General Hospital of Northern Theater Command. The primary outcomes such as mortality and aortic adverse events [stroke, paraplegia, limb ischemia, organ failure (renal and intestinal tract), endoleak, redissection, aortic rupture, reintervention, and mortality] were recorded and evaluated at 1 month (early term) and 18 months (late term).The 697 patients of TBAD treated with TEVAR were divided into the antithrombotic (AT) group (n = 208) and nonantithrombotic (NAT) group (n = 489). The incidence of early mortality, early aortic adverse events, and the 18 months of cumulative freedom from all-cause mortality and aortic adverse events were not significantly different between the AT and NAT groups (2.4% versus 1.4%, 2.9% versus 4.5%, 94.7% versus 96.5% and 88.4% versus 89.9%, respectively). Log-rank tests also indicated that there were no significant differences. In multivariate Cox regression models, only pleural effusion, partially thrombosed of false lumen, maximum diameter of false lumen, and branch involvement were independent predictors of mortality, whereas the systolic blood pressure (SBP), pleural effusion, partially thrombosed of false lumen, true lumen compression, maximum diameter of false lumen, branch involvement were independent predictors of adverse aortic events.The antithrombotic drug for acute TBAD treated with TEVAR does not influence the mortality and aortic events in the early and late terms.

RESUMEN

Background and Objectives: This is a propensity-matched, single-center study of limited versus extended resection for type A acute aortic dissection (AAAD). Materials and Methods: This study collected retrospective data for 440 patients with acute type A aortic dissection repairs (limited resection, LR-215; extended resection, ER-225), of which 109 pairs were propensity-matched to LR versus ER. Multivariate analysis was performed for inpatient death, long-term survival and the composite outcome of inpatient death/TIA/stroke. Kaplan-Meier survival curves were compared at 1, 3, 5, 10 and 15 years using the log-rank test. Results: Mean age was 66.9 ± 13 years and mean follow-up was 5.3 ± 4.7 years. A total of 48.9% had LR. In-hospital mortality was 10% (LR: 6% vs. ER: 13.8%, p < 0.01). ER, NYHA class, salvage surgery and additional procedures were predictors of increased mortality in unmatched data. Propensity-matched data showed no difference in TIA/stroke rates, LOS, inpatient mortality or composite outcomes. LR had better survival (LR: 77.1% vs. ER: 51.4%, p < 0.001). ER (OR: 1.97, 95% CI: 1.27, 3.08, p = 0.003) was a significant predictor of worse long-term survival. At 15 years, aortic re-operation was 17% and freedom from re-operation and death was 42%. Conclusions: Type A aortic dissection repair has high mortality and morbidity, although results have improved over two decades. ER was a predictor of worse perioperative results and long-term survival.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) has evolved as the standard for treating complicated acute type B aortic dissection (ATBAD). Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication in critically ill patients and is commonly observed in patients with ATBAD. The purpose of the study was to characterize AKI after TEVAR. METHODS: All patients who underwent TEVAR for ATBAD from 2011 through 2021 were identified using the International Registry of Acute Aortic Dissection. The primary end point was AKI. A generalized linear model analysis was performed to identify a factor associated with postoperative AKI. RESULTS: A total of 630 patients presented with ATBAD and underwent TEVAR. The indication for TEVAR was complicated ATBAD in 64.3%, high-risk uncomplicated ATBAD in 27.6%, and uncomplicated ATBAD in 8.1%. Of 630 patients, 102 (16.2%) developed postoperative AKI (AKI group) and 528 patients (83.8%) did not (non-AKI group). The most common indication for TEVAR was malperfusion (37.5%). In-hospital mortality was significantly higher in the AKI group (18.6% vs 4%; P < .001). Postoperatively, cerebrovascular accident, spinal cord ischemia, limb ischemia, and prolonged ventilation were more commonly observed in the AKI group. The expected mortality was similar at 2 years between the two groups (P = .51). Overall, the preoperative AKI was observed in 95 (15.7%) in the entire cohort consisting of 60 (64.5%) in the AKI group and 35 (6.8%) in the non-AKI group. A history of CKD (odds ratio, 4.6; 95% confidence interval, 1.5-14.1; P = .01) and preoperative AKI (odds ratio, 24.1; 95% confidence interval, 10.6-55.0; P < .001) were independently associated with postoperative AKI. CONCLUSIONS: The incidence of postoperative AKI was 16.2% in patients undergoing TEVAR for ATBAD. Patients with postoperative AKI had a higher rate of in-hospital morbidities and mortality than those without. A history of CKD and preoperative AKI were independently associated with postoperative AKI.

RESUMEN

Introduction: Abnormal inter arm systolic blood pressure, inter leg systolic blood pressure and ankle brachial index (ABI) are related to vascular diseases. Our aim was to evaluate the correlation of inter arm systolic blood pressure difference (IASBPD), inter leg systolic blood pressure difference (ILSBPD), and ABI with acute aortic dissection (AAD) and their role in predicting AAD. Methods: In this prospective case-control study, 180 patients with AAD admitted to the emergency department were prospectively and consecutively collected in Tongji Hospital from October 2019 to December 2020. 180 healthy people matched by sex, age and BMI served as control group. All participants were adults over 18 years of age who underwent four-limb blood pressure measurements. IASBPD, ILSBPD and ABI were compared between the two groups and their associations with AAD were analyzed. Results: A total of 360 patients (180 cases and 180 controls) were analyzed. In case group IASBPD was larger [(15.23 ± 16.15) mm Hg vs. (4.19 ± 3.63) mm Hg] and ILSBPD was larger (13.00 mm Hg vs. 5.70 mm Hg). ABI was smaller [(0.98 ± 0.24) vs. (1.12 ± 0.09)], and the difference was statistically significant (all p < 0.05). According to the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC), IASBPD ≥ 10 mm Hg (Sen 61.7%, Spe 88.9%), ILSBPD ≥ 13 mm Hg (Sen 50.6%, Spe 80.6%) and ABI ≤ 0.9 (Sen 53.3%, Spe 87.2%), showed significant correlation with AAD (all p < 0.001). Conclusions: Compared with healthy people, IASBPD and ILSBPD levels were higher and ABI levels were lower in patients with AAD. IASBPD ≥ 10 mm Hg and ILSBPD ≥ 13 mm Hg can be used as indicators for early screening of AAD, and IASBPD ≥ 10 mm Hg has better predictive value for the occurrence of AAD. In patients with typical chest pain, attention needs to be paid to measuring blood pressure in the extremities.

RESUMEN

NEW FINDINGS: What is the central question of this study? Hypoxaemia can lead to increased postoperative mortality in patients: what are the independent risk factors for severe hypoxaemia after acute Stanford type A aortic dissection? What is the main finding and its importance? Severe postoperative hypoxaemia was found in 36.4% of patients, and it was determined that high preoperative bradykinin levels and increased BMI were independent predictors of severe postoperative hypoxaemia in patients with acute Stanford type A aortic dissection. For obese patients with high preoperative bradykinin levels, more attention should be paid to preventing severe postoperative hypoxaemia. ABSTRACT: Severe hypoxaemia after cardiac surgery is associated with serious complications and a high risk of mortality. The purpose of this study is to investigate the independent risk factors of severe postoperative hypoxaemia in patients with acute Stanford type A aortic dissection. We collected 77 patients with acute Stanford type A aortic dissection who underwent surgical treatment. The primary outcome was severe postoperative hypoxaemia (PaO2 /FiO2  ≤ 100 mmHg), and a multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to assess the independent predictors of risk for this. A mixed-effects analysis of variance model and a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve were generated to evaluate the predictive probabilities of risk factors for severe postoperative hypoxaemia. A total of 36.4% of patients developed severe postoperative hypoxaemia. The multivariate logistic regression analysis identified high preoperative bradykinin level (odds ratio (OR) = 55.918, P < 0.001) and increased body mass index (BMI; OR = 1.292, P = 0.032) as independent predictors of severe postoperative hypoxaemia in patients with acute Stanford type A aortic dissection. The mixed-effect analysis of variance model and ROC curve indicated that high preoperative bradykinin level and BMI were significant predictors of severe postoperative hypoxaemia (area under the ROC curve = 0.834 and 0.764, respectively). High preoperative bradykinin levels and obesity were independent risk factors for severe postoperative hypoxaemia in patients with acute Stanford type A aortic dissection. For obese patients with high levels of bradykinin before surgery, clinicians should actively take measures to block bradykinin-mediated inflammatory reactions.

RESUMEN

PURPOSE: To evaluate the usefulness of a hybrid treatment strategy for acute type A aortic dissection (AAAD). METHODS: We retrospectively evaluated the outcomes of 39 partial arch replacements (PAR; 26 male/13 female, mean age=67.9 years) in 62 patients with AAAD operated at our hospital from January 2019 to January 2023. The technique included PAR with graft-designed landing length and translocated the brachiocephalic artery inflow site during the initial surgery to minimize the invasiveness of the surgery. Thereafter, second-stage thoracic endovascular aortic repair (second TEVAR) for distal aortic events in the chronic phase was performed. RESULTS: There was 1 case of 30-day mortality (2.6%) and 2 cases of postprocedural cerebral infarction (5.1%). The cumulative survival rates were 97.4%/1 year and 97.4%/3 years. The cumulative freedom from aorta-related second-stage procedure for the distal aortic event after initial PAR, which was performed in 13 patients (33.3%), was 63.9%/1 year and 59.7%/3 years. All patients requiring re-intervention after initial PAR underwent a second TEVAR with a 100% success rate and no postoperative complications. CONCLUSION: Initial PAR for AAAD in anticipation of the second TEVAR is a valuable strategy for enabling minimally invasive additional treatment of aorta-related re-intervention for distal aortic events in the chronic phase. CLINICAL IMPACT: This study provides detailed information on the hybrid aortic repair strategy of the initial open partial arch repair and second staged endovascular repair for the acute type A aortic dissection. Based on this study, distal aortic re-intervention after initial open partial arch repair was necessary only in about 30% of cases, and no cases of SCI were observed in the initial treatment or in the second-stage endovascular repair and no cases of distal SINE were observed after the second staged endovascular repair. Overall, the results suggest that limiting the initial open partial arch repair can achieve good perioperative and early outcomes of initial surgery, and that second staged endovascular re-intervention for distal aortic events can be performed reliably, safely, and with minimal invasiveness.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to evaluate the midterm outcomes of secondary extension of frozen elephant trunk (FET) by means of thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR). METHODS: This single-center prospective study was conducted in a tertiary aortic center on consecutive patients having undergone TEVAR with an endograft covering most of the 10 cm FET module with 2 to 4 mm oversizing. All patients were monitored by computerized tomography angiography (CTA) at sixth month and yearly thereafter. RESULTS: From January 2015 to July 2022, among 159 patients who received FET, 30 patients (18.8%) underwent a TEVAR procedure (13 for a thoracoabdominal aneurysm, 11 for a chronic aortic dissection and 6 for an emergency procedure). All connections were successfully achieved with 2 postoperative deaths (6.6%) and 1 paraplegia (3.3%). At a median follow-up of 21 months (interquartile range [IQR], 4.2-34.7), 5 patients (25%) required a fenestrated-branched endovascular aortic repair (F-BEVAR) extension followed by 4 patients with 5 reinterventions, 3 for a Type 3 endoleak due to disconnection between FET and TEVAR endograft, and 2 unrelated to the FET for a secondary Type 1C endoleak. All reinterventions were successful, without mortality or morbidity. CONCLUSIONS: In this series, FET connection with a TEVAR endograft was effective with low postoperative morbidity but with a risk of aortic reintervention related to disconnection between the FET and TEVAR endograft. These results suggest the need for annual CTA monitoring with no time limit in patients following connection of the FET with a TEVAR endograft. CLINICAL IMPACT: In this series of 30 patients, midterm outcomes of secondary extension of frozen elephant trunk (FET) by thoracic endovascular repair (TEVAR) showed 3 disconnections (10%) with a Type 3 endoleak between FET and TEVAR. These findings suggest the need for annual CTA monitoring with no time limit. But so far, only a few studies provide some information after one year while the risk of disconnection increases over time and becomes a concern after 3 years. This is the new message brought by our study.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To describe the trends in management and outcomes of patients with acute type B aortic dissection in the International Registry of Acute Aortic Dissection. METHODS: From 1996 - 2022, 3 908 patients were divided into similar sized quartiles (T1, T2, T3, and T4). In hospital outcomes were analysed for each quartile. Survival rates following admission were compared using Kaplan-Meier analyses with Mantel-Cox Log rank tests. RESULTS: Endovascular treatment increased from 19.1% in T1 to 37.2% in T4 (ptrend < .001). Correspondingly, medical therapy decreased from 65.7% in T1 to 54.0% in T4 (ptrend < .001), and open surgery from 14.8% in T1 to 7.0% in T4 (ptrend < .001). In hospital mortality decreased in the overall cohort from 10.7% in T1 to 6.1% in T4 (ptrend < .001), as well as in medically, endovascularly and surgically treated patients (ptrend = .017, .033, and .011, respectively). Overall post-admission survival at three years increased (T1: 74.8% vs. T4: 77.3%; p = .006). CONCLUSION: Considerable changes in the management of acute type B aortic dissection were observed over time, with a significant increase in the use of endovascular treatment and a corresponding reduction in open surgery and medical management. These changes were associated with a decreased overall in hospital and three year post-admission mortality rate among quartiles.
