niacin and Peripheral Arterial Disease

niacin has been researched along with Peripheral Arterial Disease in 8 studies

Niacin: A water-soluble vitamin of the B complex occurring in various animal and plant tissues. It is required by the body for the formation of coenzymes NAD and NADP. It has PELLAGRA-curative, vasodilating, and antilipemic properties.
vitamin B3 : Any member of a group of vitamers that belong to the chemical structural class called pyridines that exhibit biological activity against vitamin B3 deficiency. Vitamin B3 deficiency causes a condition known as pellagra whose symptoms include depression, dermatitis and diarrhea. The vitamers include nicotinic acid and nicotinamide (and their ionized and salt forms).
nicotinic acid : A pyridinemonocarboxylic acid that is pyridine in which the hydrogen at position 3 is replaced by a carboxy group.

Peripheral Arterial Disease: Lack of perfusion in the EXTREMITIES resulting from atherosclerosis. It is characterized by INTERMITTENT CLAUDICATION, and an ANKLE BRACHIAL INDEX of 0.9 or less.

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Patients with PAD on ASA therapy at baseline were included from the ongoing Effect of Lipid Modification on Peripheral Arterial Disease after Endovascular Intervention Trial (ELIMIT), which is a randomized trial testing whether combination treatment with ezetimibe, niacin, and a statin will halt/regress atherosclerosis compared with statin monotherapy."9.15Variability and persistence of aspirin response in lower extremity peripheral arterial disease patients. ( Ballantyne, CM; Dong, JF; Kimball, KT; Lumsden, AB; Morrisett, JD; Nambi, V; Saunders, J; Virani, SS, 2011)

" The Intermittent Claudication Proof of Principle (ICPOP) study tested the hypothesis that the combination of extended release niacin plus lovastatin would improve exercise performance in patients with PAD and claudication compared with a diet intervention."5.14Effect of niacin ER/lovastatin on claudication symptoms in patients with peripheral artery disease.

Effect of Intensive Lipid Modification Medication Therapy on Progression of Atherosclerosis and Restenosis of Femoral Arteries Measured Using High Resolution Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) to Examine the Femoral Artery for Progression of Atherosclerosis

"The primary outcome variable was the change in superficial femoral artery (SFA) wall volume over 24-months, as determined by MRI. The 24-month changes in SFA lumen and SFA total vessel volumes were also analyzed.~Analysis details: A total of 102 patients were randomized. 87 patients completed baseline MRI. Between randomization and the baseline visit, 1 patient withdrew from the study, 8 patients opted out from baseline imaging, and 6 additional patients declined blood collection at baseline. The multilevel models (primary endpoint) used all available imaging data (n=91), including patients who only completed baseline imaging (n=20) or completed at least 2 imaging visits other than baseline (n=4)."
