Compared with the non-MFS patients, those with MFS were considerably younger (mean\u00b1SD age 35.27\u00b111.11 vs 54.11\u00b111.96\u2005years, p&amp;lt;0.001) and had pre-existing hypertension much less commonly (5.4% vs 80.0%, p&amp;lt;0.001). The patients with MFS presented with a wider ascending aorta diameter (63.60\u00b19.00 vs 38.55\u00b19.44\u2005mm, p&amp;lt;0.001) and a lower body mass index (20.14\u00b12.00 vs 25.62\u00b13.41, p&amp;lt;0.001) than the non-MFS patients. Overall, 91.1% of the MFS patients underwent surgical treatment, whereas 55.78% of the non-MFS patients accepted medical treatment. However, mortality in the two groups did not differ significantly (6 vs 17, p=0.527). Multivariate analysis showed that the aortic diameter (OR=1.072) was a risk factor and surgical treatment (OR=0.006) was a protective factor for the survival of MFS patients with aortic dissection. With increased diastolic blood pressure, mortality decreased in non-MFS patients with aortic dissection (OR=0.905).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>These clinical results could be useful for rapid assessment of the treatment and prognosis of patients with aortic dissection.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1136\/pgmj.2010.105510","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2011,1,27]],"date-time":"2011-01-27T22:49:38Z","timestamp":1296168578000},"page":"325-330","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["Comparison of aortic dissection in Chinese patients with and without Marfan syndrome"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"87","author":[{"given":"Gao","family":"Linggen","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiology, Fuwai Hospital and Cardiovascular Institute, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College , Beijing, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Zhang","family":"Lin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiology, Fuwai Hospital and Cardiovascular Institute, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College , Beijing, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Fan","family":"Xiaohan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiology, Fuwai Hospital and Cardiovascular Institute, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College , Beijing, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Wu","family":"Haiying","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiology, Fuwai Hospital and Cardiovascular Institute, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College , Beijing, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Zhou","family":"Xianliang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiology, Fuwai Hospital and Cardiovascular Institute, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College , Beijing, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hui","family":"Rutai","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiology, Fuwai Hospital and Cardiovascular Institute, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College , Beijing, China"},{"name":"Sino-German Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Key Laboratory for Clinical Cardiovascular Genetics, Ministry of Education, Fuwai Hospital and Cardiovascular Institute, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences , Beijing, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2011,1,27]]},"reference":[{"key":"2023041908214022500_b1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"311","DOI":"10.1378\/chest.122.1.311","article-title":"Clinical, diagnostic, and management perspectives of aortic dissection","volume":"122","author":"Khan","year":"2002","journal-title":"Chest"},{"key":"2023041908214022500_b2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"546","DOI":"10.1001\/jama.1994.03520070066040","article-title":"Transesophageal echocardiography of the aorta","volume":"272","author":"Blanchard","year":"1994","journal-title":"JAMA"},{"key":"2023041908214022500_b3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"383","DOI":"10.1002\/clc.4960290903","article-title":"Acute aortic dissection in children and adolescents: diagnostic and after-event follow-up obligation to the patient and family","volume":"29","author":"Fikar","year":"2006","journal-title":"Clin Cardiol"},{"key":"2023041908214022500_b4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1666","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJMcpc049004","article-title":"Case records of the Massachusetts General Hospital.
