摘要
Hypercholesterolemia and type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) are well-established risk factors for atherosclerotic occlusive disease. However, of the 2, only the former is a risk factor for abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). In this editorial, we point out the principal epidemiologic and pathobiologic differences between the effects of hypercholesterolemia and DM on AAA growth, lessons learned related to these mechanisms from nonhuman studies including preventative effects of experimental phototherapy by low-level laser, and implications for novel mechanism–based treatment approaches.
