Abstract
Although peripheral artery disease (PAD) primarily affects large arteries outside the brain, PAD is also associated with elevated cerebral vulnerabilities, including greater risks for brain injury (such as stroke), cognitive decline and dementia. In the present review, we aim to evaluate recent literature and extract information on potential mechanisms linking PAD and consequences on the brain. Furthermore, we suggest novel therapeutic avenues to mitigate cognitive decline and reduce risk of brain injury in patients with PAD. Various interventions, notably exercise, directly or indirectly improve systemic blood flow and oxygen supply and are effective strategies in patients with PAD or cognitive decline. Moreover, triggering protective cellular and systemic mechanisms by modulating inspired oxygen concentrations are emerging as potential novel treatment strategies. While several genetic and pharmacological approaches to modulate adaptations to hypoxia showed promising results in preclinical models of PAD, no clear benefits have yet been clinically demonstrated. We argue that genetic/pharmacological regulation of the involved adaptive systems remains challenging but that therapeutic variation of inspired oxygen levels (e.g., hypoxia conditioning) are promising future interventions to mitigate associated cognitive decline in patients with PAD.

The assessment of lower extremity peripheral artery disease impact on body mass center disorders. Clin Biomech (Bristol, Avon) 2022; 99:105742. [PMID: 36031704 DOI: 10.1016/j.clinbiomech.2022.105742] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/17/2021] [Revised: 08/07/2022] [Accepted: 08/12/2022] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Lower extremity peripheral artery disease is a problem of contemporary medicine and along with the ischemic heart disease it is considered to be a civilization disease. The risk of the disease increases significantly within a group of people reaching the age of 55 years and is closely related to co-occurring hazardous factors, such as diabetes, hyperlipidemia, hypertension or tobacco smoking. The first symptom reported by patients is intermittent claudication. Such symptoms may indicate that lower extremity peripheral artery disease does have an impact on posture disorders and motor skills. METHODS The study covered four stages. The first stage involved medical interviews to obtain information regarding anthropometry, age, motor organ surgery, concomitant diseases and the lifestyle. In the following stage the value of the ankle brachial index for both lower limbs were calculated. In case of symptomatic patients, additionally, the location of artery stenosis/aortoiliac section, was verified. The third stage involved using a dynamometric platform for determination of the body mass center position for both studied groups. In the fourth stage a treadmill walk test was used to assess the participants for intermittent claudication. FINDINGS Based on the obtained results, an attempt was taken to observe the relationship between the clinical characteristics of the disease and the body mass center position deviations. INTERPRETATION The attempt was undertaken to assess whether the measurement of body mass center position might be a diagnostic parameter to evaluate the patient's condition and thus an indication for taking a decision for surgical treatment or rehabilitation.

Abstract
Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) are health outcomes directly reported by the patient that can be used to measure the effect of disease and treatments on patient perceived well-being. This review summarizes current evidence regarding the validation of PROMs in people with symptomatic, nonlimb-threatening peripheral artery disease. A literature search was conducted to identify studies of symptomatic peripheral artery disease without limb-threatening ischemia that included PROMs and had sample sizes ≥25. PROMs were summarized along a continuum of validation using classical test theory framework and according to whether they fulfilled defined criteria for (1) content validity; (2) psychometric validation; and (3) further validation evidence base expansion. Of 2198 articles identified, 157 (7.1%) met inclusion criteria. Twenty-four PROMs in patients with symptomatic peripheral artery disease were reviewed. Among disease-specific PROMs, 8 of 15 had excellent reliability as measured by a Cronbach alpha ≥0.80. Based on established criteria for PROM responsiveness, 6 of 15 disease-specific PROMs demonstrated excellent sensitivity to change. Of these, the disease-specific peripheral artery questionnaire, vascular quality of life questionnaire, and walking impairment questionnaire met criteria for validation at each stage of the continuum. For generic (nondisease specific) PROMs, the European Quality of Life 5-Dimension and SF-36 had the most extensive evidence of validation. Evidence from this review can inform selection of PROMs aligned with scientific and clinical goals, given the variable degree of validation and potential complementary nature of the measures.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is one of the major public health problems that account for morbidity, mortality, and disability worldwide. The presence of DM increases the risk of peripheral artery disease (PAD), as well as accelerates its course, making these patients more susceptible to ischemic events and impaired functional status. Unfortunately, alternative treatments for vascular complications in diabetes are poorly researched. Physiotherapy (kinesitherapy combined with different physical therapy agents) in individuals with DM and coexisting PAD may offer an important complementary therapy alternative. Early therapeutic measures can significantly improve patient outcomes, reduce cardiovascular risk, and improve daily life quality. The article provides an update on the current state of knowledge on physiotherapy interventions in the course of DM in patients with coexisting PAD.

Abstract
ABSTARCTIntroduction: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) continues to be an essential cause of morbidity and mortality among people living with human immunodeficiency virus infection (PLWH). Since the bulk of cardiovascular risk (CVR) factors are shared between PLWH and the general population, prevention and treatment strategies are similar. However, there are CVR factors particular to PLWH, which need separate consideration. These factors are those HIV-dependent, those related to HIV-derived consequences, and combination antiretroviral therapy (cART)-dependent.Areas covered: In this review, the authors discuss the management of CVD in PLWH, with a special interest in pharmacological treatment and drug-drug interactions with cART.Expert opinion: In recent years, we have witnessed a decreased CVD morbidity and mortality in PLWH, which probably reflects an improvement in the management of CVR factors and CVD in these patients, partially thanks to new developments in antiretroviral therapy. Therefore, although there is still room for improvement, at present, the old desideratum of equaling PLWH and the general population in terms of CVD incidence and prognosis is a little closer.

Abstract
The aims of this study were, firstly, to assess the effect of concurrent peripheral artery disease (PAD) on the health-related quality of life (QOL) of people diagnosed with a small abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA); and secondly, to test whether the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α agonist fenofibrate improved QOL of people diagnosed with a small AAA, including those diagnosed with concurrent PAD. The study included both a cross-sectional observational study and a randomized placebo-controlled clinical trial. 140 people diagnosed with a 35–49 mm diameter AAA, 56 (40%) of whom had concurrent PAD, and 25 healthy controls were prospectively recruited. QOL was assessed with the short form (SF) 36. Findings in participants that were diagnosed with both AAA and PAD were compared separately with those of participants that had a diagnosis of AAA alone or who had neither AAA nor PAD diagnosed (healthy controls). All participants diagnosed with an AAA were then randomly allocated to 145 mg of fenofibrate per day or identical placebo. Outcomes were assessed by changes in the domains of the SF-36 and ankle brachial pressure Index (ABPI) from randomization to 24 weeks. Data were analyzed using Mann–Whitney U tests. Participants diagnosed with both AAA and PAD had significantly worse QOL than participants diagnosed with AAA alone or healthy controls. Fenofibrate did not significantly alter SF-36 scores or ABPI over 24 weeks. Fenofibrate does not improve QOL of people diagnosed with small AAA, irrespective of whether they have concurrent PAD.

Abstract
This study was designed to explore the effect of Chitosan oligosaccharides (COS) on mouse hindlimb ischemia by femoral artery ligation. Here, we demonstrated that COS treatment statistically promoted the blood perfusion and neovascularization in ischemic hindlimb of mice, accompanied by the suppression of inflammation and oxidative stress. By 16S rDNA gene sequencing, the disbalanced gut microbiota was observed in ischemic mice, while COS treatment, at least in part, restored the abundance changes of some intestinal bacteria at either phylum or genus levels. Based on metabolomics analysis on mouse plasma by UPLC-QTOF-MS, we screened 20 metabolites with the largest responses to ischemia, several of which were markedly reversed by COS. By Spearman's correlation analysis, the changed metabolites might act as a bridge between improved intestinal bacterial structure and alleviated hindlimb ischemia of mice treated by COS. Our studies point towards a potential role of COS in treatment of peripheral ischemia diseases.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aims of this study were firstly to assess the correlation between disease specific measures of quality of life (QOL) and physical performance and activity, and secondly to identify demographic, clinical, functional, and physical activity measures independently associated with QOL in people with intermittent claudication. METHODS This was a cross sectional observational study of 198 people with intermittent claudication caused by peripheral artery disease who were recruited prospectively. QOL was assessed with the intermittent claudication questionnaire (ICQ) and the eight-theme peripheral artery disease quality of life questionnaire. Physical performance was assessed with the six minute walk test (6MWT) and short physical performance battery (SPPB), and an accelerometer was used to measure seven day step count. The associations between QOL scores and 6MWT distance, SPPB scores and seven day step count were examined using Spearman Rho's (ρ) correlation and multivariable linear regression. RESULTS ICQ scores were significantly correlated with 6MWT distance (ρ = 0.472, p < .001), all four SPPB scores (balance ρ = 0.207, p = .003; gait speed ρ = 0.303, p < .001; chair stand ρ = 0.167, p = .018; total ρ = 0.265, p < .001), and seven day step count (ρ = 0.254, p < .001). PADQOL social relationships and interactions (ρ = 0.343, p < .001) and symptoms and limitations in physical functioning (ρ = 0.355, p < .001) themes were correlated with 6MWT distance. The 6MWT distance was independently positively associated with ICQ and both PADQOL theme scores (ICQ: B 0.069, p < .001; PADQOL social relationships and interactions: B 0.077, p < .001; PADQOL symptoms and limitations in physical functioning: B 0.069, p < .001). CONCLUSION Longer 6MWT distance independently predicted better physical and social aspects of QOL in people with intermittent claudication supporting its value as an outcome measure.

Abstract
Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) affects individuals particularly over 65 years old in the more advanced countries. Hemodynamic, inflammatory, and oxidative mechanisms interact in the pathophysiological scenario of this chronic arterial disease. We discuss the hemodynamic, muscle tissue, and oxidative stress (OxS) conditions related to chronic ischemia of the peripheral arteries. This review summarizes the results of evaluating both metabolic and oxidative markers, and also therapy to counteract OxS. In conclusion, we believe different pathways should be highlighted to discover new drugs to treat patients suffering from PAD.

Abstract
AbstractThe peripheral arterial obstructive disease (PAOD) is a chronic illnes that has as main symptom intermittent claudication and causes a progressive functional impairment of the patient. The literature is still inconclusive when it addresses the relationship among functional capacity, endurance, muscle contraction speed, and degree of blood flow impairment in patients with PAOD. The objective of this study was to evaluate the physical fitness individuals with bilateral PAOD, claudication and ankle-brachial index between 0.8 and 0.9, to verify the impact of the disease in this outcome and to analyze the association among the tests. Forty individuals, with mean age 56 years were divided in: group PAOD (n=20) and control group (n=20) were subjected to the following tests: Five-Times-Sit-to-Stand Test (FTSST), Heel-rise test (HRT), test of gait speed usual (UV) and maximum (MV), shuttle walking test (SWT). There was a significant difference among the variables obtained through HRT, UV, MV and SWT, showing a worse performance of the group with PAOD compared to the control. The FTSST test showed no differences among the groups. Analyzing the whole sample, the presence of PAOD is an indicator of poor performance in TDBP. This study suggests that people with mild PAOD present reduced performance in functional endurance tests of the lower limbs and that there is a direct relationship between walking speed and patency of local arterial flow, demonstrating in an unprecedented way the need for evaluation of this public, considering the possibility of initial identification of the symptoms and giving greater efficiency in the therapeutic planning of maintenance of the functionality.Keywords: Physical Fitness. Intermittent Claudication. Peripheral Vascular Diseases.ResumoA doença arterial obstrutiva periférica (DAOP) é uma doença crônica que tem como sintoma principal a claudicação intermitente e causa um progressivo comprometimento funcional do paciente. A literatura ainda é inconclusiva quando aborda a relação entre a capacidade funcional, endurance, velocidade de contração muscular e grau de comprometimento de fluxo sanguíneo em pacientes com DAOP. O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar a aptidão física de indivíduos com DAOP bilateral, claudicantes e Índice tornozelo-braço entre 0,8 e 0,9, verificar o impacto da doença neste desfecho e analisar a associação entre os testes. Quarenta indivíduos, com faixa etária média de 56 anos, divididos em grupo DAOP (n=20) e grupo controle (n=20), foram submetidos aos testes: Teste senta-levanta (TSL), teste ponta de pé (TPP), testes de velocidade usual (VU) e máxima (VM), teste de deslocamento bidirecional progressivo (TDBP). Houve diferença significativa entre as variáveis do TPP, VU, VM e TDBP, mostrando pior performance do grupo com DAOP comparado ao controle. O teste TSL não apresentou diferença entre os grupos. Analisando os grupos em conjunto a presença de DAOP foi indicadora de pior desempenho no TDBP. Este estudo sugere que pacientes com DAOP leve apresentam redução da performance nos testes funcionais de endurance dos membros inferiores e que existe uma relação direta entre a velocidade da marcha e a patência do fluxo arterial local, demonstrando de forma inédita, a necessidade de avaliação deste público, considerando a possibilidade de identificação inicial dos sintomas e conferindo maior eficiência no planejamento terapêutico de manutenção da funcionalidade.Palavras-chave: Aptidão Física.

Temporal Association Between Ischemic Muscle Perfusion Recovery and the Restoration of Muscle Contractile Function After Hindlimb Ischemia. Front Physiol 2019; 10:804. [PMID: 31316393 PMCID: PMC6611152 DOI: 10.3389/fphys.2019.00804] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/20/2019] [Accepted: 06/06/2019] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
During incomplete skeletal muscle recovery from ischemia, such as that occurs with critical limb ischemia, the temporal relationship between recovery of muscle capillary perfusion and contractile function is poorly defined. We examined this relationship in BALB/cJ mice (N = 24) following unilateral hindlimb ischemia (HLI), which pre-clinically mimics the myopathy observed in critical limb ischemia patients. Specifically, we examined this relationship in two phenotypically distinct muscles (i.e., "oxidative" soleus - Sol and "glycolytic" extensor digitorum longus - EDL) 14- or 56-days after HLI. Although overall limb blood flow (LDPI) reached its' recovery peak (48% of control) by HLI d14, the capillary networks in both the Sol and EDL (whole mount confocal imaging) were disrupted and competent muscle capillary perfusion (perfused lectin+μm2/muscle μm2) remained reduced. Interestingly, both Sol and EDL muscles recovered their distinct capillary structures and perfusion (Con Sol; 0.056 ± 0.02 lectin+μm2/muscle μm2, and Con EDL; 0.039 ± 0.005 lectin+μm2/muscle μm2) by HLI d56 (Sol; 0.062 ± 0.011 lectin+μm2/muscle μm2 and EDL; 0.0035 ± 0.005 lectin+μm2/muscle μm2), despite no further improvement in limb blood flow (LDPI). Both muscles suffered severe myopathy, indicated by loss of dystrophin positive immunostaining and the absence of stimulation induced isometric force production at HLI d14. Dystrophin immunofluorescence returned at HLI d56, although neither myofiber CSA (μm2) nor isometric force production (58 and 28% sustained deficits, Sol and EDL, respectively) recovered completely in either muscle. In summary, we reveal that the temporal relationship between the restoration of muscle capillary perfusion and functional ischemic skeletal muscle regeneration favors competent muscle capillary perfusion recovery in BALB/c mice in a phenotypically non-distinct manner.

Abstract
Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is a prevalent, morbid, and mortal disease. Claudication represents an early, yet common manifestation of PAD. A clinical history and physical examination combined with an ankle-brachial index can help make a diagnosis of claudication. Due to the polyvascular nature of the underlying atherosclerosis, PAD is often associated with heart disease and stroke. Although health implications of PAD derive from both its limb and cardiovascular manifestations, claudication is life-threatening, less limb-threatening. Medical modification of cardiovascular risk factors and exercise are the cornerstone in the treatment of claudication. Revascularization in claudication is focused at improvement in claudication symptoms and functional status, rather than aggressive attempts at limb salvage. The aim of this article is to summarize the strategies in the treatment of claudication, to serve as a concise and informative reference for physicians who are managing these patients. A framework of the decision-making process in the management of patients with claudication is shown, which can be applied in clinical practice.
