Abstract
The study by Li et al1 is an important addition to the literature regarding the incidence of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) hospitalizations and outcomes across sex assigned at birth, race, ethnicity, and age. The authors should be commended on their efforts to update the knowledge in this area to include intersectional identifiers such as race, ethnicity, assigned sex at birth, and socioeconomic status and to be respectful of the terminology defining patient populations.1-3 The team queried the National Inpatient Sample (NIS) and census data between 2012 and 2018 to perform a contemporary analysis of the risk of hospitalization for patients with intact and ruptured AAAs.
