Association of peripheral venous disease with arterial endothelial dysfunction: a proof-of-concept study
The objective of the study was to evaluate the association between peripheral venous
disease (PVD) and arterial endothelial dysfunction (ED). Arterial and venous diseases have
been always considered as two completely different entities, but the recent discovery of a
relationship between arterial and venous thrombosis have challenged this assumption. ED,
considered to be an early process in the pathophysiology of atherosclerotic disease, could
represent a common pathogenetic background. We studied 39 healthy volunteers (median …
