Abstract
Being largely asymptomatic, thoracic aortic aneurysms pose a challenge for the physician to identify and intervene in time to prevent death or a major complication. Knowing how to accurately analyze the available clinical data is vital to informing the proper management of these patients. This paper seeks to provide an overview of the statistical methods most commonly used to analyze clinical outcomes with a special focus on research related to aortic disease.
