Intraluminal thrombus effect on the progression of abdominal aortic aneurysms by using a multistate continuous-time Markov chain model

Abstract: Objective To investigate the relationship between the characteristics of intraluminal thrombus (ILT) with abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) expansion. Methods This retrospective clinical study applied homogeneous multistate continuous-time Markov chain models to longitudinal computed tomography (CT) data from Korean patients with AAA. Four AAA states were considered (early, mild, severe, fatal) and the maximal thickness of the ILT (maxILT), the fraction of the wall area covered by the ILT (areafrac) and the frac… Show more

“…Also, aneurismal vortical flow dictates the bio-transport of activated platelets and inflammatory cytokines (trapped within swirling eddies) to the vascular wall, eventually degrading the vessel wall's structural integrity 20 , 21 . As a result, studies 22 24 have been motivated to find factors significantly correlated with AAA growth, including biomechanical factors.…”
