Peripheral arterial disease(PAD) show insufficient blood supply of diseased limbs, which causes intermittent claudication of lower limbs, reduced skin temperature, pain, and chronic progressive disease that still produces ulcer or necrosis. Some clinical studies have shown Sympathetic overactivity
Post-injury muscle regeneration is a multifaceted process requiring the coordination of myogenesis and angiogenesis. Whether this coordination is altered in pathological context has been poorly investigated, whether the original defect stems from the myogenic cell (degenerative myopathy) or the
The rate of cartilage and joint damage in RA is correlated with plasma elevations in inflammatory acute phase reactants, such as C- reactive protein and erythrocyte sedimentation rate, rheumatoid factor positivity and the synovial concentrations of matrix metalloproteinases(MMP), a matrix digesting
General Context Chronic Kidney Patients (CKD) live a sedentary life. Sedentarity and Sarcopenia worsen during the evolution of CKD with numerous cardiovascular diseases, infectious and other comorbidities. Inactivity may activate and amplify the inflammatory process, hypercoagulability,
Peripheral artery disease (PAD) is the narrowing of arteries in the extremities, resulting in insufficient blood supply to tissue in the extremities. In its mildest form, PAD may be asymptomatic, or may show mild symptoms such as intermittent claudication (IC), a pain one may experience while
Peripheral artery disease (PAD) is a manifestation of systemic atherosclerosis and a strong predictor of cardiovascular (CV) mortality. The systemic disease of atherosclerosis in these patients results in arterial stenoses in the arteries supplying the muscles of the lower extremities. During
Background
Background and rationale of the study:
Atherosclerosis is an increasing widespread systemic disease, representing a significant cause of morbidity and mortality for those affected by it. Age-adjusted prevalence of peripheral arterial disease lies at 12%, increasing to 20% in persons above
Intermittent claudication (IC) is a common problem in the UK's elderly population with a prevalence of 5 -10%. Intermittent claudication infers significant quality of life limitations, however, it is a disease which generally runs a benign course with >80% of patients remaining stable. Yet the
