Carotid Intima Media Thickness and Its Association With Total Bilirubin Levels in Patients With Coronary Artery Ectasia....

Published in Angiology

Atherosclerosis plays an important role in the etiopathogenesis of coronary artery ectasia (CAE). The relationship between total bilirubin (TBil) and carotid intima media thickness (cIMT) in patients with CAE has not been fully investigated. Hence, we evaluated the relationship between TBil levels and cIMT in 142 consecutive eligible patients with ...

Impact of Diabetes Mellitus on Critical Limb Ischemia With Below the Knee Disease: Japan Below-the-Knee Artery Treatment...

Published in Angiology

A strong association exists between diabetes mellitus and critical limb ischemia. We performed endovascular therapy on 1060 limbs in 884 patients with below knee lesions only. The patients were divided into diabetes (DG) and nondiabetes groups (NDG). Limb salvage was poorer in the DG (79% vs 89%, P = .0061). No significant difference was observed i...

Presence of Renal Simple Cysts Is Associated With Increased Risk of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms.

Published in Angiology

We compared the incidence of renal simple cysts in 271 patients with abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) and 1387 patients without AAA (controls) using computed tomography (CT) angiography and abdominal CT, as a health screening program. The AAA group had significantly higher prevalence of renal simple cysts (55% vs 19%, P = .001) and chronic obstructi...

Is Overweight a Risk of Early Atherosclerosis in Childhood?

Published in Angiology

We measured brachial artery flow-mediated dilatation (FMD) and common carotid intima-media thickness (cIMT) in overweight (n = 67) and normal weight children (n = 115, controls). Age at examination ranged from 72 to 182 months (mean 123 ± 27). Compared to controls, the overweight children had increased weight, waist and hip circumference, systolic ...
