Local aortic geometry may influence focal atherosclerosis risk; leaves open translation from rabbit simulations to human cohorts.
Computational modeling of rabbit aortic blood flow demonstrates that local geometrical features significantly influence wall shear stress, correlating with known patterns of atherosclerotic lipid deposition.
Vincent et al. (2011) studied this question.
