Treatment of L5–S1 Spondyloptosis via Posterior‐Only L5 Partial Spondylectomy and Reduction of L4 Onto S1: Surgical Technique and Case Series

Orthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
Spondyloptosis (Grade‐V spondylolisthesis) is the most severe form of spondylolisthesis and presents significant surgical challenges due to its rarity and complexity. A modified posterior‐only approach technique is reported. Posterior‐only L5 partial spondylectomy with L4–S1 reduction is a feasible and effective treatment for lumbar spondyloptosis ...

Drug treatment of intermittent claudication [PDF]

, 1994
Intermittent claudication is a major presenting manifestation of chronic obstructive peripheral arterial disease of the lower limbs. The goals of treatment in the absence of rest pain are relief of symptoms, improvement in walking distance and prevention

Acute lower limb ischemia due to thrombo-embolic arterial occlusions in two previously healthy men with markedly elevated Lp(a) [PDF]

, 2006
Lipoprotein (a) (Lp(a)) is a well-documented risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Its role in acute thrombo-embolic occlusions of peripheral arteries is not known.

Is there a reliable association between patient-reported limb claudication and vascular imaging methods in Takayasu arteritis?

Reumatismo, 2020
Vessel imaging in Takayasu arteritis (TAK) is often performed in clinical practice following laboratory test abnormalities or clinical symptoms, such as limb claudication.

Test–retest reliability of Doppler ultrasound‐based leg blood flow assessments during exercise in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Doppler ultrasound may be used to assess leg blood flow (Q̇leg${{\dot{Q}}_{{\mathrm{leg}}}}$), but the reliability of this method remains unexplored in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), where between‐subject variability may be larger than healthy due to peripheral vascular changes.

Does sticky blood predict a sticky end? Associations of blood viscosity, haematocrit and fibrinogen with mortality in the West of Scotland [PDF]

, 2003
There is increasing evidence that blood viscosity and its major determinants (haematocrit, plasma viscosity and fibrinogen) are associated with an increased risk of incident cardiovascular events; however, their associations with mortality are not ...

Intestinal epithelial injury and inflammation after physical work in temperate and hot environments in older men with hypertension or type 2 diabetes

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract We tested whether older adults with well‐controlled type 2 diabetes or hypertension, compared with age‐matched adults without chronic disease, exhibit greater intestinal damage, microbial translocation and inflammation during exertional heat stress.

Benefits of Taurisolo in Diabetic Patients with Peripheral Artery Disease

Journal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease
Trimethyl-N-oxide (TMAO) has been linked to peripheral artery disease (PAD). TaurisoloⓇ is a natural, balanced phytocomplex containing resveratrol, quercetin, catechins, procianidins, gallic acid, and caffeic acid.

Exercise oximetry in clinical practice: A single‐centre perspective on procedure and techniques

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract In moderate lower extremity artery disease (LEAD), when tissue ischaemia due to impaired inflow occurs at exercise but not during rest, exercise oximetry may be evaluated as a part of the diagnosis process. Initially used when assessing critical limb ischaemia at rest, transcutaneous oximetry (TcpO2) has also been used in the last two decades ...
