Effectiveness of glyceryl trinitrate (GTN) vasodilator patches in peripheral arterial disease
Background Foot ulceration is caused by a variety of factors including ischemia. GTN is a nitric oxide donor that reliably causes vasodilation, but its potential to improve local vascular supply to at-risk feet has received little attention. When used to supplement standard evidence-based wound care, transdermal GTN produced rapid ulcer healing in four cases of non diabetic and diabetic ulcers....

Comparison with glyceryl trinitrate
The coronary haemodynamic effects of nifedipine and glyceryl trinitrate were compared in 22 patients undergoing investigations for suspected coronary artery disease. Myocardial blood flow was estimated by the coronary sinus thermodilution technique. In sinus rhythm nifedipine increased mean coronary sinus flow from 135 ml/min to 152 m/min, and reduced arterio-coronary sinus oxygen difference fr...

Objective: Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD) is a state characterized by atherosclerotic occlusive disease of lower extremities. Diabetes is the main risk factor for PAD. Material and Methods: To assess the prevalence of PAD, a cross sectional study was performed on 352 diabetic patients who referred to Yazd diabetes research center from 2007 to 2010. Vascular assessment was done by measuring ...
