Peripheral arterial ischemic events in cancer patients.
Thromboembolic complications are the second leading cause of death in cancer patients. In contrast to the large body of literature on venous thromboembolism (VTE), relatively few reports have focused on the pathogenesis, incidence, management and outcomes of arterial thromboembolic events in patients with malignancy. The purpose of this article is to review the current literature on the etiolog...
متن کاملBleeding increases the risk of ischemic events in patients with peripheral arterial disease.
BACKGROUND Patients with peripheral arterial disease are at high risk of ischemic events and therefore are treated with antithrombotics. In patients with coronary artery disease or cerebrovascular disease, bleeding is related to the subsequent occurrence of ischemic events. Our objective was to assess whether this is also the case in patients with peripheral arterial disease. METHODS AND RESU...
متن کاملPrevalence of Peripheral Arterial Disease in Diabetic Patients

متن کاملANTI CARDIOLIPIN ANTIBODIES IN PATIENTS WITH ISCHEMIC EVENTS
To determine the presence of anticardiolipin (aCL) antibodies in patients with ischemic events, we designed a case-control study. We studied 33 patients with unstable angina, 33 male patients with myocardial infarction and 34 control subjects with no evidence of ischemic heart disease. Plasma samples were assessed for IgG anticardiolipin antibodies by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELI...
متن کاملAssociation of asymptomatic peripheral arterial disease with vascular events in patients with stroke or transient ischemic attack.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Patients with stroke and patients with transient ischemic attack (TIA) are at high risk for vascular events and may not exhibit the signs and symptoms of peripheral arterial disease (PAD). We investigated if asymptomatic PAD detected by ankle brachial index <0.9 is independently associated with recurrent vascular events in patients with stroke or TIA. METHODS In this pr...
