Prevalence of nonatheromatous lesions in peripheral arterial disease.
OBJECTIVE The histopathology of peripheral arterial disease and the accompanying calcification are poorly defined, and it is not known whether this varies according to different risk factors. APPROACH AND RESULTS Sections from 176 upper and lower leg arteries were examined histologically in specimens from amputations of 60 patients with peripheral arterial disease, of whom 58% had diabetes me...
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 کاملThe prevalence of peripheral arterial disease in a defined population.
Because patients with peripheral arterial disease (PAD) may be asymptomatic or may present with atypical symptoms or findings, the true population prevalence of PAD is essentially unknown. We used four highly reliable, sophisticated noninvasive tests (segmental blood pressure, flow velocity by Doppler ultrasound, postocclusive reactive hyperemia, and pulse reappearance half-time) to assess the ...
متن کاملPrevalence of peripheral arterial disease in hemodialysis patients.
INTRODUCTION The ankle-brachial index (ABI), measurement of carotid artery intima-media thickness (CIMT), and assessment of the thickness of interventricular septum (IVS), are noninvasive methods used to predict subclinical atherosclerosis in hemodialysis patients. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of peripheral arterial disease and to assess the correlations between ABI, CIMT, the t...
