BACKGROUND: Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) and local infections increase the risk of non-healing diabetic foot ulcers (DFU) and limb amputations but are treatable by percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA), local wound care and antibiotic ther...
Peripheral artery disease (PAD) is a chronic condition caused by atherosclerosis, leading to arterial narrowing and obstruction, primarily in the lower extremities. This results in reduced blood flow and increases the risk of loss of limbs and mortal...
To assess the utility of dual-energy CT scanning (DECTs) with popliteal artery (PA) monitoring in dual low-dose (radiation and contrast) lower-extremity CT angiography (LE-CTA). 135 patients undergoing LE-CTA were prospectively included and divided i...
BACKGROUND: Contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) is a common complication of lower limb percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA). Common risk models are based on cardiology cohorts for percutaneous coronary intervention. They include a mi...
Peripheral artery disease (PAD) remains underdiagnosed and undertreated and is associated with an increased risk for adverse cardiovascular outcomes. Imaging provides an approach to identifying patients with PAD. However, the role of integrating imag...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Few studies have evaluated peripheral artery disease (PAD) in patients with lower extremity wounds by a convolutional neural network (CNN)-based deep learning algorithm. We aimed to establish a framework for PAD detection, p...
BACKGROUND: Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is a common manifestation of atherosclerosis, affecting over 200 million people worldwide. The incidence of PAD is increasing due to the aging population. Common risk factors include smoking, diabetes, an...
IntroductionTo assess and compare the knowledge of ChatGPT and Google Gemini in answering public-based and scientific questions about peripheral artery disease (PAD).MethodsFrequently asked questions (FAQs) about PAD were generated by evaluating post...
OBJECTIVE: To understand the prevalence and associated risk factors of lower extremity arterial disease (LEAD) in Chinese diabetic patients and to construct a risk prediction model.
INTRODUCTION: Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is the leading cause of amputation in the United States. Despite affecting 8.5 million Americans and more than 200 million people globally, there are significant gaps in awareness by both patients and p...
