13. Tratamento da doença arterial obstrutiva periférica em território femoropoplíteo com stent primário: análise em até 24 meses
Resumo Contexto O stent primário é uma opção de tratamento bem estabelecida para a doença arterial periférica em território femoropoplíteo. Estudos nacionais são escassos. Objetivos Avaliar desfechos clínicos e radiológicos em curto e médio prazo em pacientes classificados como Rutherford 3-6, tratados com o uso de stent em lesões femoropopl

14. Intermittent claudication and severe renal artery stenosis are independently associated in hypertensive patients referred for renal arteriography
OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the association between the presence of clinical symptoms of peripheral artery disease and severe renal artery stenosis in patients referred for renal angiography. METHOD: We included 82 patients with clinical suspicion of renovascular hypertension and performed an imaging investigation (renal Doppler ul

15. Different methods of calculating ankle-brachial index in mid-elderly men and women: the Brazilian Longitudinal Study of Adult Health (ELSA-Brasil)
The ankle-brachial index (ABI) is a marker of subclinical atherosclerosis related to health-adverse outcomes. ABI is inexpensive compared to other indexes, such as coronary calcium score and determination of carotid artery intima-media thickness (IMT). Our objective was to identify how the ABI can be applied to primary care. Three different methods of calcul

16. Association of hemoglobin with ankle-brachial index in general population
OBJECTIVES: Previous studies have demonstrated that both low and high hemoglobin concentrations are predictive of adverse cardiovascular outcomes in various populations. However, an association of hemoglobin with the ankle-brachial index, which is widely used as a screening test for peripheral arterial disease, has not yet been identified. METHODS: We exam

19. Ankle-brachial index as a predictor of coronary disease events in elderly patients submitted to coronary angiography
OBJECTIVES: To correlate the importance of the ankle-brachial index in terms of cardiovascular morbimortality and the extent of coronary arterial disease amongst elderly patients without clinical manifestations of lower limb peripheral arterial disease. METHODS: We analyzed prospective data from 100 patients over 65 years of age with coronary arterial dis

20. Predictors of walking capacity in peripheral arterial disease patients
OBJECTIVE: To estimate walking capacity in intermittent claudication patients through a prediction model based on clinical characteristics and the walking impairment questionnaire. METHODS: The sample included 133 intermittent claudication patients of both genders aged between 30 and 80 years. Data regarding clinical characteristics, the walking impairmen

21. Remote ischemic preconditioning in patients with intermittent claudication
OBJECTIVE: Remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) is a phenomenon in which a short period of sub-lethal ischemia in one organ protects against subsequent bouts of ischemia in another organ. We hypothesized that RIPC in patients with intermittent claudication would increase muscle tissue resistance to ischemia, thereby resulting in an increased ability to wa

22. Risco cardiovascular na hipertensão do avental branco: avaliação do Índice Tornozelo Braquial / Cardiovascular risk in white coat hypertension evaluation of ankle brachial index
As alterações vasculares são complicações clínicas secundárias a elevação da pressão arterial que podem comprometer a capacidade funcional e aumentar o risco de mortalidade. Um instrumento utilizado como marcador de doença arterial obstrutiva periférica que vem merecendo amplo interesse clínico e científico é o Índice Tornozelo-Braquial (ITB)

23. Perioperative cardiovascular evaluation: heads or tails?
When dealing with surgical patients, a perioperative evaluation is essential to anticipate complications and institute measures to reduce the risks. Several algorithms and exams have been used to identify postoperative cardiovascular events, which account for more than 50% of perioperative mortality. However, they are far from ideal. Some of these algorithms

24. Índice de pressão tornozelo-braquial em pacientes renais crônicos incidentes em hemodiálise / Ankle-brachial Index in End-stage Renal Disease Incident in hemodialysis
Cardiovascular disease is an important cause of death in patients on dialysis. Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is a prognostic factor for cardiovascular disease. Ankle-brachial index (ABI) is a non-invasive method used for the diagnosis of PAD. The difference between ABI pre and post dialysis was not yet formally tested, and it was one objective of this st
