Biomarkers of peripheral arterial disease.
Atherosclerotic arterial occlusive disease affecting the lower extremities is also known as peripheral artery disease (PAD). This disorder affects 8 to 12 million individuals in the U.S. and is increasingly prevalent in Europe and Asia. Unfortunately, most patients are not diagnosed and are not optimally treated. A blood test for PAD, if sufficiently sensitive and specific, would be expected to...
متن کاملPrevalence of Peripheral Arterial Disease in Diabetic Patients
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 ...
متن کاملPeripheral arterial disease: morbidity and mortality implications.
Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) has been estimated to reduce quality of life in approximately 2 million symptomatic Americans,1 and millions more Americans without claudication are likely to suffer PAD-associated impairment.2 PAD is a strongly age-dependent condition that contributes significantly to morbidity and healthcare expenditures in the elderly: There are 413 000 discharges per year w...
متن کاملPeripheral arterial disease, diabetes, and mortality.
OBJECTIVE The aims of this study were to provide estimates of 1) the risk of mortality for individuals with both diabetes and peripheral arterial disease (PAD) relative to that for individuals with either condition alone and 2) the association between PAD progression and mortality for individuals with diabetes, PAD, and both conditions. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS This longitudinal cohort stu...
متن کاملThe role of biomarkers and genetics in peripheral arterial disease.
Men and women with lower extremity peripheral arterial disease (PAD) have higher levels of inflammatory biomarkers than those without PAD. Observational studies link higher levels of several inflammatory biomarkers, including C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin-6, tumor necrosis factor-alpha, and soluble adhesion molecules, to 1 or more of the following outcomes in people with PAD: more sever...
