Varicose veins may increase risk of blood clots, lead to vascular diseases

By Vascular Conference 2018 - June 29, 2018

Adults with varicose veins - gnarled, enlarged veins, most commonly appearing in the legs and feet - may be at increased risk of suffering from blood clot that could lead to vascular diseases, a study has found. The study found people with varicose veins were at a five times increased risk of developing a deep venous thrombosis (DVT) -- a clot in the legs which can lead to amputation or even death, the Daily Mail reported. They were twice as likely to develop a pulmonary embolism -- a clot which travels into the lungs and can be deadly.They also had double the risk of peripheral arterial disease, which reduces blood flow to the arms and legs. The study led by researchers including Pei-Chun Chen, adoctoral student from China Medical University in Taiwan, examined 212,984 patients aged 20 years and older with varicose veins, and a control group of equal patients without varicose veins. The results, published in the journal JAMA, showed that among adults diagnosed with varicose ...

Cannabinoids exert a neuroprotective effect on the cognitive deficits caused by vascular dementia

By Vascular Conference 2018 - June 28, 2018

“Vascular dementia ( VaD ) is characteristic of chronic brain ischemia and progressive memory decline, which has a high incidence in the elderly”, states the study. “However, there are no effective treatments for VaD, and the underlying mechanism of its pathogenesis remains unclear.” With that in mind, “This study investigated the effects of a synthetic cannabinoid receptor agonist WIN55,212-2 ( WIN ) on VaD, and molecular mechanisms of the effects.” Using a variety of tests conducted on rat models, it was found that WIN55,212-2 – which is meant to mimic the effects of natural, cannabis-derived cannabinoids – “decreased the expression of Capase-3, and improved the learning and memory impairment of VaD rats.” Researchers state that “These data indicate that WIN exerts a neuroprotective effect on the cognitive deficits of VaD rats, which may be associated with the suppression of excessive autophagy and inflammation.”
