Rationale for change

Changed "rupture" to bleeding for medical accuracy. In Heyde syndrome, the high shear stress from aortic stenosis causes the mechanical destruction (proteolysis) of von Willebrand factor (vWF) multimers. This "Acquired von Willebrand Syndrome" prevents effective platelet adhesion at the site of angiodysplasias, leading to hemorrhage rather than a mechanical rupture of the vessels.
