What is peripheral artery disease (PAD)?PAD is narrow, weak, or blocked arteries that prevents blood flow to your legs and arms. It may affect any arteries outside of your heart and brain. PAD is usually the result of a buildup of fat and cholesterol, also called plaque, along your ...
Peripheral vascular disease (peripheral artery disease or PVD) causes narrowing of blood vessels to the body (other than the brain and heart). Learn about symptoms and treatment.

Venous disease is complex and can impact patients of younger and more diverse backgrounds than other vascular diseases. We are committed to helping all patients affected by deep venous disease by building awareness of the symptoms that can progress to pulmonary embolism or venous obstruction and devel...
Peripheral vascular disease (PVD) includes conditions that cause blood vessels outside the heart and brain (in the legs, arms, stomach, and kidneys) to narrow or block. Devices that are used to treat these conditions are often minimally invasive for lowering patient risk and recovery time. ...
Loss of hair on the legs Impotence Having symptoms while at rest is a sign of more severe disease. When to Seek Medical Care When you have symptoms of peripheral vascular disease in a leg or a foot (or in an arm or a hand), see your health care provider for an evaluation. Generally...
We investigated the effects of PDRN, a mixture of deoxyribonucleotides, in an experimental model of hind limb ischemia (HLI) in rats to stimulate vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-A production and to avoid critical ischemia. The femoral artery was excised to induce HLI. Sham-operated ...

In contrast to acute peripheral nerve injury, the molecular response of Schwann cells in chronic neuropathies remains poorly understood. Onion bulb structures are a pathological hallmark of demyelinating neuropathies, but the nature of these formations i
