摘要:
The present invention relates to methods of identifying and using risk factors for estimating aneurysm expansion, including high risk expansion in abdominal aortic aneurysm patients, such factors including associated genetic variants and gender differences. In particular, methods of using genetic risk scores and/or patient genotypes are provided for use, including individualizing surveillance for reducing AAA, reducing growth rates of AAA and reducing rates of aneurysm ruptures.
