Studies exploring the influence of OSA on PAD have largely focused on subclinical markers of ...
This study provides valuable insights into mortality rates and sex differences in mortality risk in three cohorts of Dutch patients hospitalised for the first time with lower extremity peripheral arterial disease (PAD) in 2007 – 2010, 2011 – 2014, and 2015 – 2018. Specifically, in the 2007 ...
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) and peripheral artery disease (PAD) are recognized as independent risk factors contributing to excess mortality. Contemporary observational studies exploring the associations of risk factors, and risk of all-cause and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease mortality in persons with T2...
Mahmud et al (2007) noted that over the past decade, percutaneous revascularization therapies for the treatment of patients with peripheral arterial disease (PAD) have evolved tremendously, and a great number of patients can now be offered treatment options that are less invasive than traditional sur...
A population-based study in Finland of 888 patients with varicose veins and 2006 control patients found statistically significant increased odds of developing arterial disease (PAD, angina pectoris, myocardial infarction, or cerebrovascular disease) in the patients with varicose veins (odds ratio = ...
Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is caused by atherosclerosis that results in ischemia mostly in the lower extremities. Clinical trials including VEGF-A administration for therapeutic angiogenesis have not been successful. The existence of anti-angiogenic isoform (VEGF165b) in PAD muscle tissues is a...
A prediction model to identify determinants and quantify the risk of future ischaemic events in patients with peripheral arterial disease (PAD) provides a personal risk profile to offer individualized patient care. A risk chart was derived and validated in patients who received infrainguinal bypass sur...
Nutrition impacts the prevalence of peripheral arterial disease in the United States Traditional recommendations for peripheral arterial disease (PAD) risk factor reduction include smoking cessation, low-fat/low-salt diet, exercise, and opt... JS Lane,CP Magno,KT Lane,... - 《Journal of Vascular...
Major adverse limb events (MALEs) are frequent in patients with lower extremity peripheral arterial disease (PAD). However, routine care MALE rate estimations after revascularisation are scarce. This study aimed to determine post-procedural MALE rates in revascularised patients with PAD and identify...
