Diabetes and Critical Limb Ischemia: The Deadly Duo in Patients with Symptomatic Peripheral Artery Disease.
Inflammation plays an important role in the initiation and progression of peripheral artery disease (PAD). Patients with diabetes have an increased risk of developing PAD. Data regarding the prognostic implication of diabetes and inflammation on all-cause mortality in patients with symptomatic PAD and preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF >50%). The study was conducted at the Sestr...
متن کاملNanoscale strategies: treatment for peripheral vascular disease and critical limb ischemia.
Peripheral vascular disease (PVD) is one of the most prevalent vascular diseases in the U.S. afflicting an estimated 8 million people. Obstruction of peripheral arteries leads to insufficient nutrients and oxygen supply to extremities, which, if not treated properly, can potentially give rise to a severe condition called critical limb ischemia (CLI). CLI is associated with extremely high morbid...
متن کاملElevated Blood Urea Nitrogen is Associated With Critical Limb Ischemia in Peripheral Arterial Disease Patients
As renal function is often impaired in atherosclerosis patients, accelerating atherosclerosis per se and creating a vicious cycle, we investigated the association of blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and critical limb ischemia (CLI) in peripheral arterial occlusive disease (PAOD) patients. Our cross-sectional study included 1521 PAOD patients, with normal and impaired renal function treated at our inst...
متن کاملGraz Critical Limb Ischemia Score: A Risk Score for Critical Limb Ischemia in Peripheral Arterial Occlusive Disease
Critical limb ischemia (CLI), a frequently encountered disorder, is associated with a high rate of limb amputation and mortality. To identify patients at high risk for CLI, we developed a simple risk score for peripheral arterial occlusive disease (PAOD).In our cross-sectional study, we first evaluated 1000 consecutive PAOD patients treated at our institution from 2005 to 2007, documenting clin...
متن کاملIschemia-modified albumin concentrations in patients with peripheral vascular disease and exercise-induced skeletal muscle ischemia.
BACKGROUND Ischemia-modified albumin (IMA) is a new marker of myocardial ischemia, there is concern that IMA concentrations may be affected by ischemia occurring in tissues other than the myocardium. METHODS We assessed 23 consecutive patients (15 males; mean age, 67 years) with typical leg claudication and documented peripheral vascular disease (PVD). All patients underwent both treadmill-ex...
