Patients are often older than 60 years and can present with postprandial abdominal pain, nausea, diarrhea, and significant weight loss. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Lower Extremity Pain

  METHODS: A 14-year old boy presented with worsening right lower extremity pain and ulcerative lesions of his foot. Laboratory analysis revealed a diagnosis of APS. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

We report a case of a 50 year old woman presenting with digital ischemia, whose diagnostic workup led to an invasive breast cancer, with significant improvement of digital ischemia after a successful treatment of the neoplasm. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Further workup may include referral to a geneticist for evaluation of potential genetic or metabolic causes of stroke in these populations. [clevelandclinicmeded.com]

The underlying pathogenic mechanisms remain unknown and it can be the first manifestation, occur after the diagnosis or during treatment. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Nevertheless, CLI treatment has undergone a gradual shift over the last years to incorporate a greater portion of endovascular treatment. [minervamedica.it]

These results showed that an increase in SPP of ≥ 20 mmHg after bypass surgery was associated with better limb prognosis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

The extent of ischemia and its quantification is also relevant in view of the very poor prognosis of left main and 3-vessel disease, which influences this negative prognosis through the presence of extensive ischemia. [revespcardiol.org]

Spontaneous subclavian artery dissection is a rare etiology. Spontaneous artery dissection causing brain ischemia is rare in all ischemic strokes. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

We present a short review of the literature, discussing epidemiology, pathophysiology, clinical presentations, diagnosis and management of NOMI. NOMI is a rare disease with a difficult diagnosis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

It provides biological plausibility to support epidemiology studies that show ultrafine particles are especially potent in causing adverse cardiac outcomes. [cfpub.epa.gov]

This study reviews the role of ALDH2 in modulating the pathways involved in the pathophysiology of IRI associated with oxidative stress, autophagy and apoptosis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

The effects of statins on stroke prevention and treatment as well as on apoptotic mediators are also considered. [dx.doi.org]

The management for preventing the delayed cerebral ischemia is clinically difficult because of its multifactorial nature. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Medications that prevent clotting or fight infections may also be prescribed. [vascular.surgery.ucsf.edu]

Prevention The same lifestyle habits that can help treat myocardial ischemia can also help prevent it from developing in the first place. [mayoclinic.org]
