Peripheral artery disease [PDF]

BMJ, 2018
### What you need to know Peripheral artery disease affects around 13% of the Western population who are more than 50 years old.1 It is most commonly due to atherosclerosis, where an atherosclerotic plaque causes arterial stenosis or occlusion. This results in a reduction in blood flow to the affected limb.

Atherectomy for peripheral arterial disease [PDF]

Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2020
Symptomatic peripheral arterial disease (PAD) has several treatment options, including angioplasty, stenting, exercise therapy, and bypass surgery. Atherectomy is an alternative procedure, in which atheroma is cut or ground away within the artery.

Peripheral arterial disease

British Journal of Hospital Medicine, 2009
Peripheral arterial disease is commonly caused by atherosclerosis, and symptoms depend on the location and size of the affected artery, metabolic demands on the tissue, and the presence or absence of a collateral circulation. This article reviews the current evidence for the diagnosis and management of peripheral arterial disease.

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.

Ischemia-modified albumin in type 2 diabetic patients with and without peripheral arterial disease

Clinics, 2011
OBJECTIVE: To determine whether there is an association between serum ischemia-modified albumin and the risk factor profile in type 2 diabetic patients with peripheral arterial disease and to identify the risk markers for peripheral arterial disease ...

How I do it: optimizing angioplasty using the Tack endovascular system in the management of chronic limb threatening ischemia

Journal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques, 2023
Dissection occurring after percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) is associated with decreased vessel patency and an increased incidence of target lesion revascularization. Management of post-PTA dissection with the Tack Endovascular System (Philips,

Comparative study of pressure (ankle-brachial pressure index) and flow (strain gauge plethysmography and reactive hyperaemia) measurements in diagnosis of peripheral arterial disease in patients with severe aortic stenosis.

PLoS ONE, 2019
BackgroundThe measurement of the ankle-brachial pressure index is a straightforward method for the detection of peripheral disease in the lower limbs. Only a few old studies with small numbers of patients have been conducted comparing the gold standard ...

Peripheral Artery Disease and Aortic Disease [PDF]

Global Heart, 2016
We reviewed published MESA (Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis) study articles concerning peripheral arterial disease, subclavian stenosis (SS), abdominal aortic calcium (AAC), and thoracic artery calcium (TAC). Important findings include, compared to non-Hispanic whites, lower ankle-brachial index (ABI) and more SS in African Americans, and higher ...
