Undercover Peripheral Arterial Disease
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. Further investigation revealed a severe disseminated arterial disease.

Interventional Treatment Options for the Prevention of Amputation in Patients With Lower Extremity Wounds From Peripheral Arterial Disease [PDF]
Background Peripheral arterial disease and related lower extremity wounds are prominent causes of amputation. Revascularization may reduce amputation rates or the amputation margin more distally in patients with peripheral arterial disease who have ...

Nanotherapies for Atherosclerosis: Targeting, Catalysis, and Energy Transduction
Atherosclerosis management is hindered by poor drug targeting and plaque heterogeneity. Nanotechnology overcomes these barriers via three core strategies: (1) target‐engineered nanocarriers that achieve lesion‐specific precision via ligand modification, biomimetic camouflage, stimuli‐responsive release, and self‐propelling nanomotors; (2) catalytic ...
