The impact of aortoiliac stenosis on kidney transplant patients remains unclear. This study aims to investigate the safety and efficacy of kidney transplantation in patients with aortoiliac stenosis.
Feasibility, usability and safety clinical study that is aimed at testing of the non-invasive VOTIS PedCheck system for measurement of changes in absorption of light in order to derive changes in perfusion and oxygen levels in the foot.
The Disrupt PAD III study was designed as a randomized controlled trial (RCT) with an additional observational registry component. The registry, referred to as the Disrupt PAD III Observational Study (PAD III OS), was a global, prospective, multi-center, single-arm registry of the Shockwave Peripheral Intravascular Lithotripsy (IVL) System. The objective of this study was to assess the real-world acute performance of IVL in the treatment of calcified, stenotic, peripheral arteries that may not qualify for inclusion in the RCT. The study was designed to enroll a maximum of 1500 subjects from up to 60 global sites with a minimum of 200 subjects treated with the S4 IVL catheter, a line extension designed to treat smaller diameter peripheral vessels, including calcified below-the-knee (BTK) lesions. Subjects were required to have target lesions in the iliac, femoral, ilio-femoral, popliteal, or infra-popliteal arteries with at least moderate calcification as determined by the investigator, defined as calcification within the lesion on both sides of the vessel assessed by angiography. Adjunctive therapies such as atherectomy, specialty balloons, and stents were allowed. Subjects were followed through discharge.
Peripheral artery disease (PAD) is a chronic atherosclerotic process that causes narrowing of peripheral arterial vessels in the lower extremities. Osteopathic manual therapy (OMT) is one of the new treatment options for various pathologies. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of OMT on arterial circulation in patients with PAD.
This study intends to irradiate the acupoints of both lower extremities of hemodialysis patients with far-infrared therapeutic apparatus to explore its effect on foot blood circulation, peripheral artery occlusion disease (PAOD) symptoms and ankle-brachial index (Ankle-Brachial Index, ABI) value.
Background Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) and its relevant complications are more common in hemodialysis (HD) patients. The potential association regarding chronic kidney disease dysbiosis, inflammation and metabolic endotoxinemia in HD patients is unknown. A cross-sectional study will be carried out the evaluate the possible association endotoxin core antibody with asymptomatic PAD in a cohort of HD patients. Methods This cohort study enrolled 500 HD patients treated at a single center in Taichung city. Fasting blood samples will be collected to determine biochemical data Endotoxin core antibody levels and other related biomarkers. By the automatic oscillometric method, the ankle-brachial index (ABI) was measured. Low ABI was defined as any value < 0.9.
This is a prospective, multi-center, single-group post-market study. It is planned to be carried out in about 3 clinical institutions, and a total of 60 subjects are expected to be enrolled.
Background: Although exercise training is a well described therapy for some cardiometabolic diseases such as obesity, type 2 diabetes, arterial hypertension, and metabolic syndrome, there is scarcity of knowledge about the post-exercise period term as 'detraining' where usually all physiological adaptations as cardiovascular and metabolic benefits are lost due to physical inactivity. Likewise, as some exercise training modalities as high-intensity interval training improve vascular parameters including endothelial dysfunction parameters as flow-mediated dilation (FMD%), and carotid-intima media thickness (c-IMT) during the 'training' period, there is little knowledge about how many 'volume' or 'intensity' of exercise training or physical activity per week is needed to maintain the exercise training benefits in populations with cardiometabolic risk factors such as those patients with arterial hypertension. This information will be of great interest for both improving and maintaining the vascular profile and health of Chilean adults with risk factors and to maintain a better vascular profile. Objective: To study the beneficial adaptations from the 'training' and 'detraining' period of exercise training on functional and structural vascular parameters in healthy and cardiometabolic risk factors adult subjects to improve the health profile. Methods: The investigators will conduct an experimental design of 5 groups of exercise training in healthy (controls) and hypertensive (HTN) patients (≥140 mmHg), with overweight/or obesity, men and women, with BMI ≥25 and ≤35 kg/m2, aged ≥18y, physically inactive (<150 min/week of low/moderate PA/week, or <75 min/week of vigorous PA) in the last 6 months will be invited for participating. The groups will be as follows; Group (HTNex will be compared with Group HTNcg). Group (ELEex will be compared with Group ELEcg). Group (NTex will be compared with Group NTcg). Each group will be compared in their physiological vascular adaptations before and after exercise training such as HIIT, and after 3 months of a detraining period. Results (hypothesis): The investigators hypothesized that the maintenance of vascular outcomes after the 'detraining' period is intensity-dependent in adults with HTN that participated of an exercise intervention.
The aim of the study is to analyze the applicability (usability) of a tele-health service as part of a potential disease management program for patients with peripheral arterial disease. The following investigations will be conducted as part of the usability study. In the context of a tele-health service, knowledge, physical condition (including walking distance) will be documented during face-to-face and televisits, dislocated supervised gait training and education will be provided, and satisfaction with the tele-health service will be evaluated.
