A systematic review of the neutrophil to lymphocyte and platelet to lymphocyte ratios in patients with lower extremity arterial disease
Conclusions: The studies included in this review support the role of elevated NLR and PLR as key components influencing the clinical outcomes, severity, and success of treatment in patients with LEAD. The use of these easily accessible, cost effective and routinely available markers is supported by the present review.PMID:38563057 | DOI:10.1024/0301-1526/a001117 (Source: VASA.

Management of isolated distal deep vein thrombosis
Vasa. 2024 Mar 28. doi: 10.1024/0301-1526/a001119. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACT Isolated distal deep vein thrombosis (DVT) represents up to 50% of all lower limb DVT in ultrasound series and is a frequent medical condition, which management is not well established. Data arising from registries and non-randomized studies suggest that most distal DVTs do not extend to the proximal veins and have an uneventful follow-up when left untreated. This data had some impact on international recommendations like the American College of Chest Physicians (ACCP), whose last version stated that ultrasound surveillance might be an option...

Co-prevalence of arterial aneurysm location - a correlation analysis based on a retrospective cross-sectional observational study
Conclusions: In our study sample, aneurysm co-prevalence was highly non-random. This should be considered in the context of aneurysm screening programs.PMID:38546297 | DOI:10.1024/0301-1526/a001121 (Source: VASA. Zeitschrift fur Gefasskrankheiten. Journal for Vascular Diseases)

Venous disorders as an occupational disease - a systematic review on epidemiology, pathophysiology, and modification strategies
Conclusions: Occupational history and the patient's activity profile are important diagnostic tools which can help confirm a diagnosis and justify treatment when findings are inconsistent. Compression therapy is the primary form of secondary and tertiary prevention. There continues to be a lack of primary preventive measures related to workplace design.PMID:38536202 | DOI:10.1024/0301-1526/a001116 (Source: VASA. Zeitschrift fur Gefasskrankheiten.

Exercise therapy for chronic symptomatic peripheral artery disease
Vasa. 2024 Mar 10. doi: 10.1024/0301-1526/a001112. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACT All guidelines worldwide strongly recommend exercise as a pillar in the management of patients affected by lower extremity peripheral artery disease (PAD). Exercise therapy in this setting presents different modalities, and a structured programme provides optimal results. This clinical consensus paper is intended to promote and assist the set up of comprehensive exercise programmes and best advice for patients with symptomatic chronic PAD. Different exercise training protocols specific for patients with PAD are presented. Data on patient asse...
