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.

Antioxidants in Peripheral Arterial Disease
Current Drug Target -Cardiovascular & Hematological Disorders, 2004Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is an important manifestation of systemic atherosclerosis that is characterized by obstruction of the arteries in the lower limbs. Experimental and epidemiological studies suggest a key role for oxidative stress in initiation and progression of the atherosclerotic process.

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.

Ethnicity and Peripheral Arterial Disease
Mayo Clinic Proceedings, 2005To determine whether race/ethnicity is an independent risk factor for peripheral arterial disease (PAD).From September 2000 through August 2001, we screened patients (age > or = 55 years) for PAD within 4 primary care clinics located in the Houston, Tex, area.

Cilostazol for peripheral arterial disease
2002Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) affects 4% to 12% of people aged 55 to 70 years and 20% of people over 70 years. The most common complaint is intermittent claudication (IC) characterised by pain in the legs or buttocks that occurs with exercise and which subsides with rest.

Screening for peripheral arterial disease
Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2013In the general population, up to 10% of people younger than 70 years and 15% to 20% of people older than 70 years have peripheral arterial disease (PAD). Symptomatic and asymptomatic PAD has an estimated prevalence of 13% in the over 50 years age group.

Epigenetics and Peripheral Artery Disease
Current Atherosclerosis Reports, 2016The term epigenetics is usually used to describe inheritable changes in gene function which do not involve changes in the DNA sequence. These typically include non-coding RNAs, DNA methylation and histone modifications. Smoking and older age are recognised risk factors for peripheral artery diseases, such as occlusive lower limb artery disease and ...

Epidemiology of Peripheral Arterial Disease
Journal of Cardiovascular Pharmacology, 1994With the aging of the population of most developing nations, arteriosclerosis is becoming a major health problem. Although much research has concentrated on the coronary and cerebral forms of the disease, peripheral arterial disease has received little attention from epidemiologists.
