Abstract:
Giant cell arteritis (GCA) causes autoimmune inflammation of the aorta and its large branches, resulting in aortic arch syndrome, blindness, and stroke. CD4+ T cells and macrophages form organized granulomatous lesions in the walls of affected arteries, destroy the tunica media, and induce ischemic organ damage through rapid intimal hyperplasia and luminal occlusion. Pathogenic mechanisms remain insufficiently understood; specifically, it is unknown whether the unopposed activation of the immune system is because of deficiency of immunoinhibitory checkpoints.

Abstract:
This study aimed to evaluate short-term changes of wall shear stress and circumferential stress in a self-designed double-layer vein graft in a porcine vein graft model. In this study, left and right hind femoral arteries of 40 white pigs were randomly divided into an experimental group (double-layer vein graft) and a control group (single-layer vein graft). At one hour and then at one, two and four weeks after venous bypass grafting, sets of ten animals underwent Doppler-ultrasonic and electromagnetic flowmeter examinations to calculate wall shear stress in middle sections of the vein grafts.

Abstract:
Takayasu arteritis is an inflammatory disease of large- and medium-sized arteries, with a predilection for the aorta and its branches. Advanced lesions demonstrate a panarteritis with intimal proliferation. It can affect the aorta, subclavian artery, renal artery, iliac artery, coronary artery, and other blood vessels. Pulmonary arteritis is very uncommon in TA. We describe a case of TA, who primarily presented with pulmonary hypertension.

Purpose The implantation of abdominal aortic endografts requires the insertion of large devices that have the potential to traumatize the iliac arteries, particularly on the ipsilateral side, where the main body of the endograft is introduced. The consequences of this potential trauma are unknown, but the possibility for significant injury remains. For this reason, a prospective measurement of iliac intimal medial thickness by serial duplex ultrasound was undertaken to determine the effect of endograft placement on iliac arteries.
