Undercover peripheral arterial disease

Cureus
Peripheral arterial disease is a frequently underdiagnosed disease that can severely affect the quality of life. We present a clinical case of a 62-year-old smoker post-menopause woman with a mild stroke.

Epigenetics and peripheral artery disease

Current Atherosclerosis Reports, 2016
The 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.

Antithrombotic Therapy in Peripheral Artery Disease: Current Evidence and Future Directions

Journal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2023
Patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD) are at an increased risk of major adverse cardiovascular events, and those with disease in the lower extremities are at risk of major adverse limb events primarily driven by atherothrombosis.

Management of polyvascular disease: a cross-sectional monocentric study in eastern Algeria [PDF]

Batna Journal of Medical Sciences, 2021
Introduction. The rates of atherosclerotic disease as well as its multifocal aspects have been increasing significantly. It is important to know these associations to ensure a comprehensive management of this category of patients. Aim.

The “needle re-entry” technique for infrainguinal arterial calcified occlusive lesions

CVIR Endovascular, 2021
Background Vascular calcification is a predictor of poor clinical outcome during and after endovascular intervention. Guidewire crossing techniques and devices have been developed, but chronic total occlusions (CTOs) with severe calcification often ...

Peripheral Artery Disease Screening in the Community and 1-Year Mortality, Cardiovascular Events, and Adverse Limb Events

AJPM Focus, 2022
Introduction: This study aimed to examine all-cause mortality, 1- and 2-year major cardiovascular events, and major adverse limb events in individuals aged ≥65 years who received an in-home health visit with peripheral artery disease screening.

The “Fracking” technique: a novel approach to crack deep calcified plaque in the common femoral artery with hydraulic pressure

CVIR Endovascular, 2021
Background The patency achieved by conventional peripheral interventions for atherosclerotic lesions in the common femoral artery (CFA), called the “no stenting zone”, is not superior to that achieved by surgical endarterectomy due to calcified plaque ...

The “Direct tip injection in occlusive lesions (DIOL)” fashion

CVIR Endovascular, 2021
Background The successful intervention for peripheral artery disease is limited by complex chronic total occlusions (CTOs). During CTO wiring, without the use of intravascular or extravascular ultrasound, the guidewire position is unclear, except for ...

Medial artery calcification in peripheral artery disease

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
Medial artery calcification (MAC) is a distinct, highly regulated process that is often identified in small and mid-sized arteries of the lower extremities. It is associated with advanced age, diabetes, and chronic kidney disease.

Secular trends in the epidemiologic patterns of peripheral artery disease and risk factors in China from 1990 to 2019: Findings from the global burden of disease study 2019

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
BackgroundAn understanding of the epidemiologic patterns of peripheral artery disease is essential in public health policy-making. We aimed to assess secular trends in the epidemiologic patterns and risk factors of peripheral artery disease from 1990 to ...
