... and two circumferential sites along each autopsied aorta, yielding 1188 samples (11 aortas × 18 sites × 2 directions × 3 layers per site). These samples underwent tear testing to assess tear strength and tear energy, constituting resistance to tear propagation. Adventitial tear parameters were...
