Chronic venous disease (CVD), an important cause of morbidity, is one of the most commonly reported chronic medical conditions. Venous hypertension in the lower limbs caused by venous reflux, venous obstruction or calf muscle pump failure is the main pathophysiological mechanism of CVD. The
Patients will be divided into two groups. Control group (Group C, n: 35) and Acupuncture group (Group A, n: 35). Inclusion criteria: willing to participate in the study, being in the 18-65 age range, a saphenous vein diameter greater than 5.5 mm and a small saphenous vein diameter of less than 4 mm
Pyroptosis is a pro-inflammatory form of regulated cell death and is dependent on networks of extracellular fibers (NET,s), on the enzymatic activity of inflammatory proteases that belong to the family of cysteine-dependent aspartate-specific proteases (caspase), and cytokines. The role of
Despite the application of compression stockings looks simple, it must be remembered that inappropriately worn stockings have the potential to cause certain problems. Unevenly distributed and excess pressure may break the skin, especially in older, malnourished patients and those with thin, brittle
Chronic venous disease is very common in all over the world and affects both the mortality and morbidity depending on the effected vascular territory. It is often overlooked by healthcare professionals due to the underestimation of the prevalence and impact of the disease. It represents a spectrum
Compression therapy and polidocanol endovenous microfoam (PEM) are both used for the treatment of venous leg ulcers (VLUs), but they do so by different mechanisms.
Compression therapy applied by a wound care professional has been demonstrated to improve healing rates in patients with existing VLUs
This study was carried out at the Alfa Institute of Gastroenterology, Hospital of Clinics, Universidade Federal of Minas Gerais (UFMG). The research protocol was approved by the UFMG Ethics Committee. Patients with indication for liver transplantation, aged over 20 years who regularly attended the
The aim of this study is to compare two ultrasound guided foam sclerotherapy (UGFS) techniques to great saphenous vein (GSV) by injecting the sclerosant foam through a short catheter without perivenous tumescence and through a long catheter with saline anesthetic tumescence. Method: selection of 50
This study was approved by the Research Ethics Committee of the Hospital do Servidor Público Estadual, São Paulo, Brazil, and was registered at clinicaltrials.gov under NCT 02704598. This prospective, randomized, consecutive, double-blind cohort study included patients treated for acute iliofemoral
Chronic Venous Disease (CVD) is a very common problem affecting western adult population with a prevalence of < 10%, among individuals younger than 30 years for both sex, and with a prevalence of 57% and 77%, in men and women aged ≥ 70 years respectively, and may be frequently associated with other
Portal hypertension is a common clinical syndrome, defined by a pathologic increase in the portal venous pressure, in which the hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG) is increased above normal values (1-5 mmHg). In cirrhosis, portal hypertension results from the combination of increased
Problem: There are approximately four million live births in the United States annually. Pregnancy induces multisystemic physiologic changes in the mother as her body accommodates the growing fetus. Known physiologic alterations include venous distension, hypercoagulability, and hormonal changes.
This cross-sectional and descriptive study was carried out at the Alfa Institute of Gastroenterology, Hospital of Clinics, Universidade Federal of Minas Gerais (UFMG). The research protocol was approved by the UFMG Ethics Committee. Patients with indication for liver transplantation, aged over 20
Chronic venous disease (CVD) represents one of the most common vascular disorder. It's different clinical manifestations (most often seen as varicose veins) can be observed in up to 40% of adult female population and in about 30% of adult males.
Different mechanical and biological factors play role
Research Design: Pilot study of patients presenting to vascular clinic with chronic venous disease with varicose veins and/or edema will be randomized 1:1 in one of two compression garment groups. Measurements of edema and the interface compression applied at the ankle will be determined. The venous
