Clinical Effect of Revascularization Strategies and Pharmacologic Treatment on Long-Term Results in Patients with Advanced Peripheral Artery Disease with TASC C and D Femoropoplite... by Chiu-Yang Lee

“…Weighted multivariate Cox analyses showed that cilostazol treatment (hazard ratio (HR): 0.46, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.3–0.72, P=0.001), statin treatment (HR: 0.54, 95% CI: 0.33–0.9, P=0.014), and direct revascularization (DR) (HR: 0.47, 95% CI: 0.29–0.74, P=0.001) were predictive factors of 3-year primary patency. Kaplan–Meier curve analyses of time-to-primary cumulative AFS showed that nondiabetes mellitus, mild PAD, and cilostazol and statin treatment were correlated with a superior 3-year AFS (log rank test, P=0.001, P<0.001, P=0.009, and P=0.044, respectively). …”
