Clinical symptoms that could be associated with hypoperfusion of the leg were found in 79,3% pts with LA AS, while critical stenosis/occlusion of the arteries was present in all pts with intermittent claudication.CA calcification was found in 39 (39%) pts - 4.2-fold higher incidence vs CG....
Central JSM Clinical Case Reports Case Report Calcific Uremic Arteriolopathy- An Atherosclerotic Masquerade Thajudeen B, William P and Bijin B* Department of Medicine, University of Arizona, USA Abstract Calcific uremic arteriolopathy is a poorly understood disease causing vascular calcification and ...
ALA may slow the formation and calcification of atherosclerotic plaque, as suggested by the results of cross-sectional analyses in the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute Family Heart Study.25,26 Other possible mechanisms of a beneficial effect of ALA on cardiovascular disease are plaque stabi...
5.The method of claim 1, wherein the amount of the compound, the formulation of the composition, and the length of the treatment period are effective in delaying coat thinning of the atherosclerotic plaques during the therapeutic period. 6.The method of claim 1, wherein the amount of the c...
showed a higher prevalence of thin-cap fibroatheroma and large calcification, while women older than 70 years showed a higher prevalence [8]. Notably, CVD risk in women is often missed due to the assumption that women are “protected” against CVD at younger age. Combined with the underreprese...
One patient showed calcification. The level of homocysteine in the blood of the main-group patients dropped from 16.4 ± 2.5 µmol/L at the beginning of treatment to 15.9 ± 2.1 µmol/L at its end. This drop contributed positively to the disease dynamics. The control group patients ...
4. Discussion With aging, calcification of the vascular wall, deterioration of elasticity, endothelial cell damage, and cardiac function decline are inevitable and irreversible phenomena, leading to severe cardiovascular death events [16]. The most common one is atherosclerosis, in which excessive ...
It is used for the diagnosis and assessment of PAD. An ABI < 0.9 is a strong indicator of PAD and is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular events while an ABI > 1.4 represents arterial stiffness due to medial calcification [7]. 2.2. Endpoints The primary endpoint was the ...
(OR = 0.71, 95% CI: 0.53–0.96, precessive = 0.023) with a low risk to have elevated IL-15 levels, rs3778754 (OR = 1.565, 95% CI: 1.12–2.16, padditive = 0.009) with a high risk of valvular calcification, and rs3757385 and rs3807135 with a high risk of subclinical ...
