The Biomechanics of Arterial Aneurysms
Abstract
The formation of an arterial aneurysm is believed to be a multifactorial and predominantly degenerative process, resulting from a complex interplay between biological processes in the arterial wall and the hemodynamic stimuli on the vessel's wall. Once an aneurysm forms, the repetitive pressure and shear stresses exerted by the blood flow on the weakened arterial wall generally, but not always, cause a gradual expansion. As the wall geometry, composition, and strength progressively degrade through the enlargement process, the aneurysm ruptures when the wall of the distended artery fails to support the stresses resulting from the internal blood flow. This review surveys recent progress in this area and provides a critical assessment of the contribution made by hemodynamics studies to the current understanding of the pathogenesis of the disease and to its clinical management.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
