Physiotherapy management of patients with Peripheral Artery Disease in the Western Cape
Peripheral artery disease is a growing public health burden of disability and death worldwide. This is especially the case in lower-income countries like South Africa. Peripheral artery disease is a risk factor for major cardiovascular events and a leading cause of non-traumatic lower limb …

Guideline-Directed Statin Therapy in Patients with New or Worsening Symptoms of Peripheral Artery Disease
… cholesterol guidelines recommend patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD) be treated with a moderate to high-intensity statin. The extent to which PAD patients with new or worsening claudication symptoms are offered guideline statin therapy is unknown. Methods: In the PORTRAIT registry, …

Effect of low intensity exercise training on circulatory and autonomic measures in patients with peripheral artery disease.
… and autonomic adaptations in patients with peripheral arterial disease after controlling for potential confounders such as age, sex, ß-blockers and smoking. Secondary objectives were 1) to determine the effect of the intervention on walking performance and self-report measures and 2) to …

Management, and Health Status Outcomes Of Obese Patients With Symptomatic Peripheral Artery Disease: Insight From The Portrait Registry
… Obesity is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease and related complications. The management and health status implications of obesity in patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD) is unknown. Participants from The Patient-centered Outcomes Related to Treatment practices in peripheral …

Variability in Exercise Responsiveness Among Older Adults: An Examination of Predictors and Patterns of Nonresponse to Exercise in Peripheral Artery Disease
… therapy for the treatment of symptomatic peripheral artery disease (PAD), yet variability in response to outcomes in this population is not well understood. Previous research suggests that individuals with PAD and comorbid diabetes may be less likely to see a benefit in physical function …

The effects of two modes of exercise training on plasma biomarkers of inflammation and oxidative stress in patients with symptomatic peripheral artery disease
Introduction: Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) is a manifestation of progressive atherosclerosis involving the main conduit arteries supplying the lower extremities. It is well known that atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease including PAD, is related partly to vascular inflammation and oxidative …

Methodology for quantitative assessment of perfusion in porcine model of peripheral arterial disease
Peripheral artery disease (PAD) is the degradation of perfusion in the lower muscles caused by the narrowing of upstream arteries. Currently, the diagnosis and prognosis of the disease rely almost entirely on hemodynamic metrics of major vessels affecting the periphery. Quantitative assessment of …

Šiuolaikinis lėtinių apatinių galūnių opų gydymas /
… earlier emergence of Western lifestyle-related diseases, the prevalence of patients afflicted with chronic lower limb ulcers is projected to increase. Peripheral artery disease and chronic venous diseases, including chronic venous insufficiency, are key contributors to the development of these …

Vascular and Mechanical Changes in Bone in Response to Chronic Ischemia and Mechanical Loading
<p>Peripheral artery disease (PAD) and osteoporosis have recently been shown to be associated; with the parallel occurrence suggesting that PAD related ischemia may cause or enhance the onset of osteoporosis. In order to determine the mechanism linking osteoporosis and PAD this paper will examine …

Ultrasound tissue perfusion imaging
… contrast enhancement. In a study aimed at peripheral artery disease (PAD), the enhanced sensitivity and specificity of ultrasonic-pulsed-Doppler imaging enable differentiation of perfusion between healthy and ischemic states. In addition, the use of the new ultrasound imaging coupled with …

Toward explainable machine learning methods for stroke patient outcomes in Tennessee
… an important role in LOS. For 30-day readmission peripheral artery disease, sleep disorders, as well as prescribed medicine such as anticoagulant and antibiotic agents were among the most influential features. For mortality, static patient health conditions were the most influential factors. A …

Impact of Primary Myoblasts on Macrophage Polarization In-Vitro
<p>Peripheral artery disease (PAD) is characterized by the development of atherosclerotic plaques on arterial walls, leading to the narrowing of blood vessels, resulting in ischemia in the downstream tissue. In the United States, 12% of the adult population is affected by PAD and its related …

Molecular Coordination of Skeletal Muscle Capillary Remodeling in Obesity: Implications for Metabolic Homeostasis and Disease
… which was associated with the preservation of peripheral insulin sensitivity. Together, these findings demonstrated that angiogenesis is a physiological adaptation to obesity that is governed by the net-influence of pro- and anti-angiogenic molecular factors. Finally, to determine whether the …

Diabete ed ischemia critica degli arti inferiori. Studio del danno della parete arteriosa e del ruolo dell'endotelio circolante nella riparazione tessutale e nella neoangiogenesi
… In diabetic and non diabetic patients with peripheral artery obstructive disease (PAOD), we sought to establish whether the vascular wall damage, the mature circulating endothelium and the "in situ" neoangiogenesis are related with each other. Design In the peripheral blood of diabetic …

CYP2D6 Inhibitory Activities of Sarpogrelate hydrochloride and Drug-Drug Interaction
… reduces the ischemic symptoms associated with peripheral artery disease. Despite the wide use and excellent pharmacological actions of sarpogrelate, to date there is no information regarding the potential inhibitory effects of sarpogrelate and M-1 (an active metabolite of sarpogrelate) on CYP …

Application of magnetic resonance elastography to atherosclerosis
… the root cause of a wide range of cardiovascular diseases. Although it is a global arterial disease, some of the most severe consequences, heart attack and stroke, are caused by ischemia due to local plaque rupture. The risk of rupture is related to the mechanical properties of the plaque. …

Evaluación del potencial terapéutico de diferentes combinaciones celulares para promover la regeneración vascular en un modelo murino de isquemia crítica que amenaza la extremidad
… enfermedad arterial periférica (PAD, del inglés Peripheral artery disease), se caracteriza por el estrechamiento y obstrucción de las arterias de las extremidades, normalmente correlacionado con la formación de placas ateroscleróticas. Esto provoca que el tejido adyacente a esas arterias no …
