During 30 minutes of maintained ischaemia of the upper limb, the nerve action potential (NAP) persists in some uraemic patients until the end of the test, and in all patients significantly longer than in normal subjects. Such behaviour is similar to that seen in diabetic patients and unlike that seen in people receiving high doses of insulin and glucose perfusion. Renal dialysis increases this tendency, while macromolecular perfusion after dialysis tends to correct it.

Background: Pedal acceleration time (PAT) is a novel indicator of peripheral arterial disease in the lower limbs. Elevated PAT values are associated with worse limb ischemia. Arterial stiffness indexes are another class of indicators recently studied in patients with chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI).

Thromboembolic events are among the most serious, yet rare complications of nephrotic syndrome. While peripheral venous thrombosis and pulmonary embolism are the most common, superior mesenteric artery thrombosis is a rare but life-threatening occurrence. We present a case of severe cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection complicated by congenital nephrotic syndrome, leading to mesenteric ischemia.

Background: Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is the primary cause of cardiac mortality worldwide. However, myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MIRI) following reperfusion therapy is common in AMI, causing myocardial damage and affecting the patient's prognosis. Presently, there are no effective treatments available for MIRI.

Background: Endothelial dysfunction is a hallmark feature of cardiovascular disease (CVD), yet the underlying mechanisms are still poorly understood. This has impeded the development of effective therapies, particularly for peripheral artery disease. FK506-binding protein like (FKBPL) and its therapeutic peptide mimetic, AD-01, are crucial negative regulators of angiogenesis, however their roles in CVD are unknown.

Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is a major contributor to cardiovascular-related mortality, and early diagnosis is crucial for effective treatment and better outcomes. While several biomarkers have been explored for AMI, there remains a need for reliable, non-invasive biomarkers that can accurately differentiate AMI patients from healthy individuals. This study aims to identify potential mRNA biomarkers in peripheral blood that could aid in the diagnosis and monitoring of AMI.
