Atherosclerosis is the most common cause of peripheral artery disease (PAD). The first symptom of PAD is intermittent claudication (IC), which is characterized by the occurrence of pain, cramps, numbness, and discomfort in the lower limb
Rationale: Peripheral artery disease (PAD) is a manifestation of systemic atherosclerosis, causing patients to be at high risk of major adverse cardiovascular events and major adverse limb events, including amputation. Therefore, clopidogrel or Aspirin depending on national guidelines, is
Fifty out of 57 hemodialysis anemic patients were finally included. They were assigned to two groups of equal numbers. Oral Pentoxifylline 400mg once daily was added to the treatment group which was compared to the control group over a six months period regarding hemoglobin, hematocrit, serum
I. SUBJECT ENROLLMENT
1. Methods of enrollment, including procedures for patient registration. Patients will be screened in the "Cardiac surgery pre-operative clinic", Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) Cox building floor 6 (before surgery). If the patient is eligible and after obtaining the
Primary trial objective: To evaluate whether addition of Vorapaxar 2.08 mg daily vs. placebo daily on background antiplatelet therapy, prescribed for 6 months to patients with established PAD and IC treated with standard medical therapy (SMT) would lead to an improvement in the peak walking time
Study design
The MICOLON study is a prospective, single-centre, observational cohort study on the association between 5th generation high sensitive cardiac troponin T levels and non-cardiac outcome after major abdominal surgery in patients at risk for coronary artery disease.

Atherosclerosis of the lower leg arteries is a common disease. Patients with this condition has symptoms of ischemia, for instance intermittent claudication (pain during exercise). Diagnosis of atherosclerosis in the legs is normally done with an interventional x-ray-based angiography (DSA- digital
