Intermittent claudication
Peripheral arterial disease is a common health problem that globally affects over 200 million individuals, and intermittent claudication (IC) is the most common symptomatic presentation. The leg symptoms in IC are provoked by walking exercise and can be alleviated by medical intervention, exercise training and invasive vascular interventions (revascularization). The quality of evidence for inva...
متن کاملPnm-19: Residential Exposure to Carbon Monoxide and Spontaneous Abortion
Background: The relationship between air pollution exposure and adverse birth outcomes such as low birth weight and IUGR was studied. However, very few studies evaluated the effect of air pollution emissions on spontaneous abortion. We examined association between spontaneous abortion of the first trimester of pregnancy and ambient concentrations of carbon monoxide in Tehran. Materials and Meth...
متن کاملIntermittent, low dose carbon monoxide exposure enhances survival and dopaminergic differentiation of human neural stem cells
Exploratory studies using human fetal tissue have suggested that intrastriatal transplantation of dopaminergic neurons may become a future treatment for patients with Parkinson's disease. However, the use of human fetal tissue is compromised by ethical, regulatory and practical concerns. Human stem cells constitute an alternative source of cells for transplantation in Parkinson's disease, but e...
متن کاملPatients with Intermittent Claudication
Increased blood viscosity has been shown to be an important factor in reducing blood flow in a review and analysis of the history, clinical findings, and haemodynamic, rheological, radiological, and biochemical measurements in 126 patients with intermittent claudication. In some patients increased viscosity seemed to be the determining cause of claudication. A raised plasma fibrinogen was the m...
متن کاملPentoxifylline for intermittent claudication.
BACKGROUND Intermittent claudication (IC) is a symptom of peripheral arterial disease (PAD) and is associated with high morbidity and mortality. Pentoxifylline, one of many drugs used to treat IC, acts by decreasing blood viscosity, improving erythrocyte flexibility and promoting microcirculatory flow and tissue oxygen concentration. Many studies have evaluated the efficacy of pentoxifylline in...
