Crossroads between peripheral atherosclerosis, western-type diet and skeletal muscle pathophysiology: emphasis on apolipoprotein E deficiency and peripheral arterial disease [PDF]
, 2017 Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory process that, in the presence of hyperlipidaemia, promotes the formation of atheromatous plaques in large vessels of the cardiovascular system.

Surgical intervention for peripheral arterial disease.
Circulation Research, 2015 The prevalence of peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is increasing worldwide, with recent global estimates exceeding 200 million people. Advanced PAD leads to a decline in ambulatory function and diminished quality of life.

Fused Segmentation of Geometric Models for Myocardium and Coronary Artery via Medial Axis [PDF]
arXiv, 2017 Coronary arteries and their branches supply blood to myocardium. The obstruction of coronary arteries results in significant loss of myocardium, called acute myocardial infarction, and the number one cause of death globally. Hence, quantification of the regional amount of heart muscle subtended by obstructed coronary arteries is of critical value in ...

Secondhand smoke exposure and risk of incident peripheral arterial disease and mortality: a Scotland-wide retrospective cohort study of 4045 non-smokers with cotinine measurement [PDF]
, 2018 Background: Active smoking is an important risk factor for all-cause mortality and peripheral arterial disease (PAD). In contrast, published studies on the associations with secondhand smoke (SHS) are limited.

The Clinical Role of Fibrinogen and Fibrin in Peripheral Arterial Disease [PDF]
, 1991 There is a high incidence of peripheral arterial disease in the West of Scotland associated with atherosclerosis. This may manifest itself as intermittent claudication, ischaemic rest pain, gangrene or in the form of abdominal aortic aneurysm.

Pharmacological therapy in critically ill patients with peripheral and concomitant arteriopathy
AboutOpen, 2018 Peripheral arterial disease is one of the most frequent clinical manifestations of atherosclerotic disease. The clinical picture of critical ischemia of the lower limbs is often burdened by high mortality and the risk of limb amputation.

Circulation Research, 2015 Several risk factors for atherosclerotic peripheral arterial disease (PAD), such as dyslipidemia, diabetes mellitus, and hypertension, are heritable. However, predisposition to PAD may be influenced by genetic variants acting independently of these risk ...
