Anesthesiology, 1970
Coronary artery disease, also known as ischemic heart disease , is the leading killer of men and women worldwide. In 2004, coronary artery disease was responsible for 7.2 million deaths, or 12.2% of all deaths globally and 5.8% of all years of life lost (World Health Organization 2008).

Current Treatment Options in Cardiovascular Medicine, 1999
Risk factors for atherosclerosis should be identified and reduced in all patients who have peripheral arterial disease. Cessation of smoking, strict control of diabetes and hypertension, and aggressive reduction in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol level result in a slowdown of disease progression and a reduction in cardiovascular events.

Disease-a-Month, 1994
Peripheral arterial diseases are common problems because atherosclerosis, the most common cause of both occlusive peripheral arterial disease and aneurysmal disease, is a feature of an aging population. The less common types of occlusive peripheral arterial disease--the vasospastic disorders and the arteritides--although frequently not addressed to any

Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) affects 15% of the Australian population and is a powerful and serious predictor of cardiovascular mortality yet continues to be under-recognised and undertreated. Diagnosis is simple and management is centred upon symptom relief and risk minimisation.

Primary Care: Clinics in Office Practice, 2013
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the leading cause of death worldwide. There are several presenting clinical syndromes, including sudden cardiac death. Risk factor analysis can help the primary care provider identify patients who may need more extensive evaluation or treatment.

New England Journal of Medicine, 1986
Few medical issues are more controversial than carotid endarterectomy. The subject has been featured in the general press and on prime-time television; dispute has been encouraged between surgeon and nonsurgeon, with "needless surgery" a refrain poorly concealed in the background. These debates usually have more passion than substance.

Basal Arterial Occlusive Disease
Neurosurgery, 1985Abstract Seventeen patients with basal occlusive disease have been seen over the past 4 years. Nine of these had a classical moyamoya appearance on angiography. Of these nine, seven were adults and two were children. Eight had ischemic episodes, and one had a hemorrhage.

Coronary artery disease in patients with peripheral artery disease
Heart & Lung, 2010Peripheral artery disease (PAD) is an atherosclerotic disease associated with cardiovascular risk factors, and with high cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. This study sought to assess the prevalence of angiographic coronary artery disease (CAD), and to determine the predictive value of traditional cardiovascular risk factors on the presence of CAD

co m The last decade has seen a tremendous surge of interest in peripheral arterial disease (PAD). The prevalence of multiple risk factors, chronic nature of disease, the nonspecificity of symptoms, and lackof adequate treatment optionshaveall contributed to the large burden of disease, which is frequently unrecognized.

Postgraduate Medicine, 1965
Mercury strain-gauge plethysmography is a simple, reliable and relatively inexpensive technic for office diagnosis and evaluation of patients with peripheral arterial disease. This method also can be applied to study of smaller arteries and sympathetic nervous system activity and evaluation of diabetic patients with peripheral neuropathy.
