Background. This study was designed to evaluate the effect of severe peripheral arterial insufficiency on carnitine concentrations and carnitine acetyltransferase and palmitoyltransferase activities in the ischemic skeletal muscles of patients with severe peripheral vascular disease. Methds and Results. Nine biopsy specimens ofischemic muscles were obtained from five patients undergoing reconst...
متن کاملProstacyclin and vascular disease
We hypothesize tha t prostacyclin (PG I2) is an anti-atherosclerotic hormone and that atherosclerosis develops when endothelial P G I2 synthetase is inhibited by lipid peroxides. Serum lipid peroxides occur in low-density lipoproteins (LDL). LDL lipid peroxides are elevated in common types of hyperlipoproteinaemias, P G I2 generation is im paired in atherosclerosis, and infusion of synthetic P ...

متن کاملTransseptal Coronary Angioplasty in Patients with Severe Peripheral Vascular Disease
DOI: 10.5935/abc.20130136 Introduction It is estimated that six thousand diagnostic cardiac catheterizations and two thousand coronary angioplasties are performed per million inhabitants per year1, all by retrograde approach. Roughly, for every six thousand procedures, one patient has diffuse injury of the arterial system, with involvement of the four extremities2. Despite the difficulty of art...

Until the cause of organic occlusive vascular diseases is definitely estab lished, and prophylactic measures taken to prevent them; until lipid metabolism can be controlled to pre vent atherosclerotic plaques from ad hering to the intima of arteries; until thrombosis and embolism can be pre vented and it will be routine to excise arterial segments and replace them with homografts or plastic...
