The correlation between venous symptoms and the presence of telangiectases and/or reticular veins is one of the most controversial topics in chronic venous disorders. As symptoms may be non-specific of chronic venous disease, it is important to differentiate venous symptoms from symptoms of other causes. Some data from the Bonn Vein Study suggest that the risk to develop venous symptoms is increased in women, advanced age and obesity. Treatment is based on physical advice, elastic compression, venoactive drugs, sclerotherapy, correction of foot static disorders and reduction of body weight. Future research should be promoted on venous symptoms in epidemiological and follow-up studies, about the relationship between female hormone levels and symptomatic telangiectasias, and between venous pain and foot static disorders in C0s C1s patients.

The accumulation of platelets was assessed by reinfusion of 111In labelled platelets and imaging with a scintillation camera. The accumulation of platelets was significantly higher on the sealed grafts at the beginning of the experiments but a steady-state was rapidly achieved and no differences was observed regarding the patency.

Since general practitioners (GPs) are the first segment of the population to evaluate for CVD, the Italian Project Nautilus (concerning vascular prevention) organized a monitoring campaign in 2009 with the aim of studying CVD using the CEAP classification criteria. METHODS More than 1000 GPs were included in the survey. The study produced anamnestic and clinical data on more than 10,000 patients with CVD divided into three age segments: </=30 years; 31-60 years; >60 years. Of these results, 83% were considered valid for a statistical evaluation. RESULTS The prevalent population in CVD includes adult and aging subjects; four out of five are women. The number of pregnancies is the first risk or predisposing factor in the adult population, and prolonged standing is the first cause in younger subjects. Excess weight and previous thromboses, either superficia...

Polish, directional, continuous-wave Doppler apparatus UDP-10, has been used for evaluation of multisegmental blood pressure, velocity flow tracing and for making an ultrasonic "map" of the upper limbs. The thermal test used in this investigation allowed us to distinguish functional and organic alterations in the hand arteries. The present study has been performed in 113 workers, employed in an iron casting company and exposed to vibration. The control group comprised 62 healthy men. Raynaud's phenomenon has been found in 34 workers. It has been confirmed that Doppler equipment is a safe, noninvasive technique, with a high percentage of diagnostic accuracy and is a great aid in establishing the severity of symptoms in patients with vasospastic disease. As a result of our study the diagram for diagnosing patients with vasospa...

Accurate global prevalence of VLUs is difficult to estimate due to the range of methodologies used in studies and accuracy of reporting. (1) Venous ulceration is the most common type of leg ulceration and a significant clinical problem, affecting approximately 1% of the population and 3% of people over 80 years of age (2) in westernised countries. Moreover, the global prevalence of VLUs is predicted to escalate dramatically, as people are living longer, often with multiple comorbidities. Recent figures on the prevalence of VLUs are based on a small number of studies, conducted in Western countries, and the evidence is weak. However, it is estimated that 93% of VLUs will heal in 12 months, and 7% remain unhealed after five years. (3) Furthermore, the recurrence rate within 3 months after wound closure is as high as 70%. (4) (-6) Thus, cost-effective ...

This disease that induces pain, discomfort and significant alteration of the quality of life for the affected patient, lacks specific and consensual instruments able to adequately assess its signs and symptoms. This article presents these needs that are still unmet in clinical practice and that relate to the tools currently available for the assessment of the therapeutic efficacy of drugs on the disease symptoms and signs. Suggestions are presented regarding new endpoints and tools to be used in further clinical trials aimed to assess the effect of therapies on CVD, in particular studies with Daflon 500 mg.

We infused recombinant PDGF-BB (0.01-0.30 mg/kg per d i.v.) into rats subjected to carotid injury. PDGF-BB produced a small increase (two-to threefold) in medial SMC proliferation. More importantly, PDGF-BB greatly increased (20-fold) the intimal thickening and the migration of SMC from the media to the intima during the first 7 d after injury. These data provide support for the hypothesis that PDGF, and perhaps other platelet factors, might play an important role in the movement of mesen-chymal cells into zones of injury undergoing repair.
