Presentation
The aim of the present study was to investigate circulating OLFM2 levels in lower extremity arteriosclerosis obliterans (LEASO) patients and the association of OLFM2 with postoperative restenosis in patients. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Morteza Naghavi and leading authorities from the Society for Heart Attack Prevention and Eradication (SHAPE) present a new paradigm for the screening and primary prevention of asymptomatic atherosclerosis. [books.google.com]
The present report, which is an analysis of 100 patients with arteriosclerosis subjected to this operation, is presented to add to the evidence, already in the literature, 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 of the value of the procedure in this disease.It is hoped [nejm.org]
Patients present with gradual onset or worsening of symptoms. Most patients with arteriosclerosis obliterans present with claudication. [radiologykey.com]
We report a 28 years old woman who developed pyoderma gangrenosum and two years later presented with arthritis of knees and ankles associated with panniculitis interpreted as erythema induratum that was pathologically confirmed. [scielo.conicyt.cl]

Causes of Upper Extremity Vascular Disease The most common causes of Upper extremity Vascular Disease are: Atherosclerosis Embolic disease There are other systemic diseases and anatomic abnormalities that can cause upper extremity vascular disease including [hopkinsmedicine.org]
Admitting diagnosis is diabetic peripheral vascular disease. An ultrasound doppler was performed, revealing mild to moderate arteriosclerosis of the lower extremities. [codebusters.com]

As vessels become thickened, a disease known as Peripheral Vascular Disease ( PVD) is where there is a loss of elasticity and gradually interferes with blood flow. [pedors.com]

A nonhealing wound of the right great toe with dependent rubor (purplish/reddish discoloration of toes on dependent position), which is seen in critical limb ischemia. 3. [consultant360.com]
Dependent rubor is characteristic. Category 5 patients present with ischemic ulcers. The lesions usually are located distally on the toes, but they also may be noted on the malleoli or shins. [radiologykey.com]

Symptoms include leg pain, numbness, cold legs or feet and muscle pain in the thighs, calves or feet. [stlukes-stl.com]

If you have atherosclerosis in the arteries in your arms and legs, you may have symptoms of peripheral artery disease, such as leg pain when walking (claudication). [mayoclinic.org]
Leg pains Leg pains from narrowed arteries in the lower limbs, especially on walking. In extreme cases, insufficient blood supply may result in the leg having to be amputated. [netdoctor.co.uk]

Peripheral Neuropathy
Compared with non-diabetic patients, diabetic patients had higher peripheral neuropathy, hypertension and history of CI incidence rates ( p 1. [bmccardiovascdisord.biomedcentral.com]
In diabetics, peripheral neuropathy allows repeated minor trauma, for example, from ill fitting shoes, to persist without being noted by the patient. Superimposed infection can put the limb at risk; gangrene may develop. [radiologykey.com]
Over the years, the syndrome was classified as one of the peripheral neuropathies, and later, as a chronic pain syndrome. Currently, there are two types of CRPS that are differentiated-type I and type II. [rjmatthewsmd.com]

BACKGROUND: Ketamine in sub-dissociative doses has been shown to have analgesic effects in various pain conditions, including neuropathic and phantom-limb pain, where conventional treatment has often failed. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
