Background: Etiology and risk factors of peripheral artery disease (PAD) include age,
smoking, and hypertension et al, which are shared by abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) …

Aims A number of biomarkers have been associated with abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA),
but there has been no assessment of how such markers along with clinical risk factors can …

Essentials• D‐dimer could provide important information about abdominal aortic aneurysm
(AAA) progression.• The greatest diameter of the infrarenal aorta and the value of plasma D …

Aim Intraluminal thrombus (ILT) is presented in most abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs)
and is suggested to promote AAA expansion. D-dimer, a breakdown product in the thrombus …

OBJECTIVES: To summarise the present evidence for an association between circulating
fibrinogen or D-dimer and presence of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) presence …

Background: Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is a common atherosclerotic disease with
severity ranging from asymptomatic to chronic limb threatening ischemia. The aim of the …

Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) and peripheral artery disease (PAD) share
pathophysiological mechanisms including the activation of the fibrinolytic and innate …

Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is associated with high morbidity and mortality and is an
established cause of unbalanced hemostasis. A number of hemostatic biomarkers have …

Plasma D-dimer (Dd) is a product of plasmin fibrinolysis of cross-linked fibrin that leads to
increased fibrin turnover. Dd is a known biomarker of coagulation and is commonly used for …

Background Traditional risk factors for atherosclerotic disease (AD) are well known, of which
some are relevant also for abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). The present study compares …
