Relationship of Monocyte Count and Peripheral Arterial Disease
Background—Although white blood cell (WBC) count has been consistently associated with cardiovascular end points, little information is available on the independent contribution of specific white blood cell types. The objective of this study is to assess the independent association of WBC types and other inflammatory markers with the presence of reduced ankle-brachial blood pressure index (ABI)...

متن کاملMonocyte chemoattractant protein-1 in patients with peripheral arterial disease.
BACKGROUND Chemokine-driven migration of inflammatory cells has been implicated in the pathogenesis of atherosclerotic conditions including peripheral arterial disease (PAD). Monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) is elevated in patients with coronary artery disease and in hypertensive patients. This study therefore investigated MCP-1 in patients with PAD. METHODS Serum MCP-1 was determin...
متن کاملRelationship between HbA1c level and peripheral arterial disease.
OBJECTIVE Homeostatic glucose control may play an important role in the development of peripheral arterial disease among individuals without diabetes. We sought to evaluate the association of HbA(1c) (A1C) with peripheral arterial disease in a representative sample of the U.S. population with and without diabetes. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS A cross-sectional study was conducted among 4,526 N...
