Regional variation in patient selection and treatment for lower extremity vascular disease in the Vascular Quality Initiative
Prior studies on the cause and effect of surgical variation have been limited by utilization of administrative data. The Vascular Quality Initiative (VQI), a robust national clinical registry, provides anatomic and perioperative details allowing a more robust analysis of variation in surgical practice.

Successful Implementation and Outcomes of A Simple Smoking Cessation Program In A Busy Vascular Practice
Smoking is a known risk factor for poor short and long-term outcomes after vascular procedures. Smoking cessation is an often overlooked, but important aspect in the care of vascular surgery patients. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the outcome of implementing a smoking cessation protocol within a busy vascular surgery practice.

Regional variation in outcomes for lower extremity vascular disease in the Vascular Quality Initiative
This study evaluates regional variation in outcomes after treatment for PAD within the Vascular Quality Initiative (VQI). By describing the variation in practice patterns and outcomes across regions, we hope that each regionally based quality group can select which areas are most important for them to focus on as they will have access to their regional data to compare.

Journal of Vascular Surgery – January 2018 Audiovisual Summary
Hi, I am Peter Gloviczki from Mayo Clinic, Editor in Chief of the Journal of Vascular Surgery. I am very pleased to share with you the highlights of the best papers we have in the 2018 January issue of the Journal of Vascular Surgery. The Editors' Choice article is the Society for Vascular Surgery practice guidelines on the care of patients with an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). This 76-page-long comprehensive document includes 776 references, and it represents an update and, in many areas, a complete revision of the previous update published in 2009.

Analysis of Intraoperative Radiation Use in Vascular Surgery: Catalyst for Quality Improvement
There is paucity of literature reporting radiation usage in vascular surgery. In the era of endovascular surgeries, intraoperative C-arm fluoroscopy is often used by vascular surgeons in both percutaneous and hybrid surgeries. Analyzing the use of radiation in vascular procedures can help identify patterns and establish quality improvement initiatives.

Nuclear factor-kappa B activation inhibits proliferation and promotes apoptosis of vascular smooth muscle cells.
Conclusions NF-κB overexpression promotes apoptosis and inhibits cell proliferation of VSMCs. The mechanisms might be regulated by promoting FasL and HRG-1 expression. PMID: 30003828 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Targeting Phosphodiesterase-5 by Vardenafil Improves Vascular Graft Function
Ischaemia reperfusion (IR) injury occurs during vascular graft harvesting and implantation during vascular/cardiac surgery. Elevated intracellular cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) levels contribute to an effective endothelial protection in different pathophysiological conditions. The hypothesis that the phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitor vardenafil would protect vascular grafts against IR injury by upregulating the nitric oxide –cGMP pathway in the vessel wall of the bypass graft was investigated.

Outcomes of minor amputations in patients with peripheral vascular disease over a 10-year period at a tertiary care institution.
Conclusion This study shows that a majority of foot amputees require ongoing care for non-healing wounds and a proportion necessitate conversion to major amputation. Adequate vascularization is essential to promote and maintain healing. PMID: 30157719 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

The roles of mechanotransduction, vascular wall cells, and blood cells in atheroma induction.
Conclusion Atheromatous plaque transcriptome studies will be helpful in the identification of the key genes involved in atheroma transformation and development as well as discovery of the new targets for diagnosis and therapy. PMID: 30157718 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Bilateral Peripheral Vascular Disease: The Hidden Complications of Fatigue
The early diagnosis of bilateral peripheral vascular disease can be paramount in ensuring the health, wellness and quality of life of our patients. Various physical examination skills such as abdominal aorta palpation and a thorough understanding of patient history risk factors can greatly increase the level of successful detection of peripheral vascular disease. This is imperative to our success as medical providers, as nearly 12% of the United States population has developed arterial disease. Vascular recruitment and collateral formation can mitigate small amounts of arterial occlusion but certain symptoms such as interm...

Wound Care for the Vascular Surgeon: Review of Currently Available Products and How They Affect the Biochemistry of Wound Healing in Clinical Practice
The role of Vascular Surgeons in the care of chronic wounds can range from a “hands off” approach after the main arterial or venous pathology is addressed to an active one in determining the optimal dressings, antimicrobials, and adjunctive therapies. With multiple options for wound care products, choosing the best local treatment and overall management strategy is diffi cult. The rise of Wound Care Centers has further fragmented care and the role of the Vascular Surgeon can be marginalized. However, the Vascular Surgeon is in a key position to consider the essential patient clinical factors; if combined with understan...

Development of a Multifunctionalized Vascular Scaffolding System to Induce In Situ Endothelialization
Vascular tissue engineered grafts are one of the most promising alternatives to small-diameter prosthetic grafts, which often require reintervention within a decade of use. Previous methods of seeding vascular grafts with autologous patient cells have been successful; however, grafts constructed through these methods require copious amounts of preparation time before implantation. The growth or deposition of endothelial cells (ECs) onto the luminal surface of the prosthetic vessel may be critical for optimal physiological integration of a vascular scaffold to the host environment.
