Abstract
Cerro-Pardo et al. evaluated the role of combined immunoglobulin free light chains (cFLCs) for presence of and prognostic value in patients with abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs).1 To evaluate their association with the presence of AAA, they analysed 34 AAA tissue samples vs. 34 healthy aortic tissue samples, as well as plasma levels of 434 AAA patients and 103 age matched cohorts, finding that the upper tertile of plasma cFLCs was independently associated with AAA presence (odds ratio [OR] 7.6).
