Article Synopsis
- A study aimed to investigate exercise-induced ischemia in the asymptomatic limb of patients with unilateral claudication and peripheral artery disease.
- Out of over 6,000 exercise tests, significant ischemia was detected in 46.7% of nondiabetic patients and 37.5% of diabetic patients' asymptomatic limbs.
- The research indicates that the asymptomatic limb in these patients should not be treated as normal, highlighting a notable prevalence of ischemia even when symptoms are absent.
Reproducibility of proximal and distal transcutaneous oxygen pressure measurements during exercise in stage 2 arterial claudication.

Aim: Although transcutaneous oxygen pressure measurements (tcpO2) are largely used in the investigation of vascular patients, its reproducibility is still debated. Indeed an unpredictable gradient exists between arterial and transcutaneous oxygen pressure. We hypothesised that indices taking into account changes over time and independent of absolute starting values would be more reproducible than other indices.

The efficiency of flow cytometric (FCM) DNA analysis in the diagnosis of lung carcinoma was compared with that of conventional cytologic techniques on bronchial brushing and fine needle aspiration samples from 461 patients. The main advantage of FCM was the rapid delivery of results. Unfortunately, this was offset by a poor sensitivity in the detection of bronchial tumors.
