We investigated the relationship between neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and restenosis in patients with femoropopliteal arterial disease following drug-coated balloon (DCB) angioplasty. Patients (n = 120) were divided into 3 groups according to the development of restenosis and the time of restenosis occurrence. The postoperative NLR was higher in the late-restenosis group than that in the no-restenosis group (3.

Methods: 194 patients treated with DCB for femoropopliteal lesions were retrospectively analyzed for up to 12 months of follow-up between January 2017 and September 2020. Baseline clinical and procedural characteristics were compared between the anemia and non-anemia patients, and predictors of restenosis were identified using logistic regression.
Background: Currently, there is little information on the optimal treatment for patients with femoropopliteal total in-stent occlusion.The aim of this study was to evaluate the benefit of drug-coated balloon(DCB) angioplasty after RotarexS rotational atherectomy plus thrombectomy for femoropopliteal total in-stent occlusion at 12 months.
Methods: From June 2016 to April 2019, 36 patients (21 male, mean age 71.
Purpose: To quantitatively assess the blood oxygen levels of the cerebral vein using quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM), and to analyze the correlation between magnetic susceptibility value (MSV) and clinical laboratory indicators/cognitive scores in patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD).
Materials And Methods: Fifty-nine patients (21 males and 38 females) with clinically confirmed AD (AD group) and 22 control subjects (12 males, 10 females; CON group) were recruited. Clinical data and laboratory examination indexes were collected.
