简要总结
The goal of this study is to better understand how blood flows and how oxygen is utilized in the lower limbs of people who suffer from peripheral artery disease. This study will also assess how these factors affect treatment outcomes.
Specific aims include:
Aim 1: Utilize BB-NIR-DCS to differentiate PAD patients experiencing primary oxygen delivery limitations from those suffering from mitochondrial dysfunction.
Aim 2: Test the efficacy of BB-NIR-DCS at predicting individual responses to vascular intervention.
详细描述
Subjects that do not have peripheral artery disease will complete the study procedures up to two times (baseline and follow-up at 1-2 months).
Subjects diagnosed with peripheral artery disease may be asked to complete the study procedures up to 4 separate times (baseline, follow-up at 1-2 weeks, 1-2 months, and 4-6 months). The investigators will work with them to schedule each visit.
All participants will provide informed consent prior to participating in the study. The screening procedures will include collecting information about health history, age, sex, race/ethnicity, height, weight, and reasons one should not undergo an MRI or exercise.
The laboratory procedures will include questionnaires about quality of life and walking ability, Ankle- Brachial Index, functional performance measures (treadmill walking and six minute walk distance), wearable activity monitor and activity log, and lower limb MRI with muscle perfusion and oxygenation measures at rest and in response to physiologic provocation (ischemia-reperfusion and exercise).
Investigators may ask subjects to return on a separate day to repeat part, or all, of the study procedures depending on image quality and/or equipment performance.

结局指标
主要结局
Perceived Quality of life
时间窗: Baseline and up to 26 weeks
Participants will complete a health questionnaire to gain a deeper understanding of their quality of life.
Body composition
时间窗: Baseline and up to 26 weeks
An MRI will be performed across the upper and lower body to measure muscle size, muscle quality, adiposity and body structure.
Ankle- Brachial Index
时间窗: Baseline and upto 26 weeks
The Ankle Brachial Index will be noninvasively assessed using the Smartdop XT device (Koven Technology, Inc.)
Functional performance
时间窗: Baseline and upto 26 weeks
Participants will be asked to walk as much as they can for six minutes (up and down a long hallway). Then, they will be asked to walk on a treadmill at 2 mph (3.2 km/h) at a grade of 10% for all as long as they can, or for a maximum of 10 minutes.
Leg Exercise MRI
时间窗: Baseline and upto 26 weeks
Participants will be asked to perform exercise with their lower leg (affected leg, if they have peripheral artery disease) while they are in an MRI. The MRI will be used to measure the blood flow in leg and the oxygen level of the blood in their veins.
Leg muscle size and quality
时间窗: Baseline and up to 26 weeks
An MRI of the leg will be performed to measure muscle size and tissue characteristics.
Walking ability
时间窗: Baseline and upto 26 weeks
Participants will complete a questionnaire to gain a deeper understanding of their walking ability
Steps taken
时间窗: Baseline and upto 26 weeks
Participants will be asked to wear an activity monitor on their wrist to track the number of steps they take each day for up to 6 months. A member of the study team will contact them by phone, email or text message each week to remind them to complete a log book of their daily activity.
Oxygen level of leg muscles
时间窗: Baseline and upto 26 weeks
Participants will be asked to perform exercise with their lower leg (affected leg, if they have peripheral artery disease) while they are in an MRI. A small plastic device (about the size of a match box) will also be placed on their lower limb. This device will measure the oxygen level of their leg muscles using near-infrared light.
Lower Leg Ischemia-Reperfusion
时间窗: Baseline and up to 26 weeks
A blood pressure cuff will be inflated around the upper leg for 5 minutes before being released. Leg blood flow and vein oxygen saturation will be measured throughout.
