Thrombotic disorders of hemostasis in patients with deep vein thrombosisInternational Journal of Angiology - Tập 4 - Trang 99-102 - 1995
Gernold Wozniak, Heinrich Montag, José Alemany
For 22 months we investigated the hemostatic status of 93 inpatients (44 male, and 49 female, average age 54.6 years) with a phlebographically objectified deep venous thrombosis of the leg or iliac veins. Corresponding blood samples were taken before, during, and after therapy. In 58 (62.4%) patients we found several kinds of disorders of hemostasis. There were deficiencies of the protein C, prote...... hiện toàn bộ
Closure of the calcified patent ductus in adults—a new surgical method for interruption of the patent ductusInternational Journal of Angiology - Tập 3 - Trang 139-141 - 1994
Keiichiro Katsumoto, Tatsuru Niibori
As a surgical technique for closure of the calcified ductus in adults, some surgeons advocate the method of intraaortic closure with a patch, but patch closure from inside the aorta is sometimes a hazardous procedure. The authors have applied ductus closure with a silicon sponge under direct vision. A cylindrically cut silicon sponge was inserted into the ductus through a small incision in the duc...... hiện toàn bộ
Effect of age on arterial distensibility in healthy subjects and in patients with end-stage renal failureInternational Journal of Angiology - Tập 4 - Trang 103-105 - 1995

Noninvasive studies have shown that arterial compliance decreases with age before leveling out at about 60 years. To investigate the effect of age on arterial compliance in patients with end-stage renal failure, arterial compliance of the common carotid artery was determined in 25 normotensive, renal transplanted patients (22–60 years) 6–12 weeks after transplantation and in 25 healthy controls (2...... hiện toàn bộ
Policosanol, an Aliphatic Alcohol Sugarcane Derivative: Use in Patients Intolerant of or Inadequately Responsive to Statin TherapyInternational Journal of Angiology - Tập 13 - Trang 173-175 - 2004
Christopher M. Wright, Judy C. Zielke, Thomas F. Whayne
Policosanol is a compound derived from sugarcane wax with low-density-lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol-lowering properties. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of Policosanol on LDL cholesterol reduction in patients intolerant of statin therapy or on concomitant statin therapy but not at target LDL cholesterol levels. Twenty-one patients treated with policosanol 10 mg twice a day for 156 ...... hiện toàn bộ
