“…However, some reports show a lower prevalence of tobacco use among women with PAD than among men. [28][29][30] There is a connection between the development of PAD and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels. 31 Elevated levels of CRP may be a marker for PAD severity.…”

Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) affects a significant portion of the United States population, and much research has been conducted on identifying populations at risk for PAD, evaluating appropriate diagnostic modalities for PAD, studying the effect of risk factor reduction on PAD progression, and determining the best method of treatment for symptomatic PAD. However, most PAD research and clinical trials have focused on whole populations, or populations consisting mostly of men. Little data exist with respect to PAD in women. The goal of this review is to highlight what is known about gender-related differences for PAD.

“…45 Previous studies have indicated that African Caribbeans and South Asians seemed to report more distal PAD than the general population. 18,85,159,160,163 In Indians, thromboangiitis obliterans appears to contribute to this increase. 164 In a previous hospital-based study in India, this disease reflects the younger age of presentation of patients with distal PAD.…”

Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is an important healthcare problem and is an indicator of widespread atherosclerosis in other vascular territories, such as the cerebral and coronary circulations. PAD is associated with considerable morbidity and mortality. Most population-based studies investigating PAD prevalence and risk factors for its development and progression have been based on predominantly White ethnic groups. Much less is known about the characteristics of this disease in other ethnic groups. Understanding the epidemiology of PAD amongst ethnic minority groups is relevant, given that the population of minority ethnic groups in countries such as the United Kingdom rose by 53% between 1991 and 2001 and is expected to rise further in the future. This article aims to provide an overview of possible pathophysiological differences between ethnic groups for PAD, focussing predominantly on South Asians (people originating from India, Bangladesh and Pakistan) and Blacks (people of Black Caribbean and Black African descent) as these groups comprise the majority of all ethnic minorities in the United Kingdom.

“…We find that there is a distal damage more frequent than proximal. This has been demonstrated in other recent studies such as the study of De Neuville in 2008, including 754 patients, focused on the PAD description of the West Indian subject (France) by analysis of a surgical employment of database, which showed that hemodynamic damages affected the infrapopliteal level in 86% of cases, the femoro-popliteal axis in 51%, but in only 7% of cases the aortoiliac level; the Copart register in 2013, 60.2% of patients at Toulouse University Hospital and 73.5% patients of Bordeaux and Limoges University Hospital Centers have infra-popliteal lesion and in 2014, Lavinia Belaye, in a work aimed at identifying the predominant localization of PAD, and the CVRFs influencing its topography, found the predominance of distal PAD in the 268 patients included in the study, 84.70% patients had an infra-popliteal implication, and respectively a popliteal implication 55.22%, femoral 69.02% and aortoiliac 42.91% [7][8][9].…”

Introduction: For patient with coronary artery disease (CAD), peripheral artery disease (PAD) is really underestimated. Objectives: Establish a mapping of atherosclerotic involvement of the lower limbs using ultrasound exploration, by working on a sample of coronary artery disease (CAD) patients, recruited in cardiology at the university hospital centers of the city of Constantine. Patients and Methods: Our study is descriptive, transversal, and multi-centric carried out in unit of cardiovascular explorations of the University Hospital of Constantine. The patients involved had at least one significant coronary lesion ≥ 50 on a principal coronary artery. All of our patients benefited from a lower limb Doppler ultrasonography using a 12L linear scanning probe on a General Electric vivid E9 ultrasound system. The data processing and processing used epi info 8 software. Results: Atheromatous affection and implication of the lower limbs is very common and usual in patient with coronary artery disease (CAD), mostly on the infra popliteal floor. 34.67% have a hemodynamic lesion ≥ 50% on the arterial axes of the lower limbs. Taking the lion’s share, with more than half of our population had predominantly distal mediacalcosis lesions. Conclusion: Atherothrombotic disease or atherothrombosis demands a global patient care since for a long time and for as long as anyone can remember, the clinical translations and manifestations of atherothrombosis were treated in isolation and compartmentalized.
