Last updated 2014-09-09

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Although microparticles have been well-documented as mediators of inflammation and coagulation in various cardio-vascular disease events, it is currently not known how Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty (PTA) for peripheral arterial disease influences microparticle numbers, phenotype and distribution pre- and post interventionally and how they are related to or affect the incidence of early re-stenosis - or if indeed they may be used to predict patients at risk of early re-stenosis.
