Bypass versus angioplasty in severe ischaemia of the leg (BASIL): multicentre, randomised controlled trial.
Donald J. Adam,Jonathan Beard,T Cleveland,Jocelyn Bell,Andrew W. Bradbury,John F. Forbes,F. G. R. Fowkes,I Gillepsie,C. V. Ruckley,Gillian M. Raab,H Storkey,Basil trial participants +11 more
TL;DR: In patients presenting with severe limb ischaemia due to infra-inguinal disease and who are suitable for surgery and angioplasty, a bypass-surgery-first and a balloon-angioplastic-first strategy are associated with broadly similar outcomes in terms of amputation-free survival, and in the short-term, surgery is more expensive than angiopLasty.

Bypass versus Angioplasty in Severe Ischaemia of the Leg (BASIL) trial: An intention-to-treat analysis of amputation-free and overall survival in patients randomized to a bypass surgery-first or a balloon angioplasty-first revascularization strategy

TL;DR: Overall, there was no significant difference in AFS or OS between the two strategies, however, for those patients who survived for at least 2 years after randomization, a BSX-first revascularization strategy was associated with a significant increase in subsequent OS and a trend towards improved AFS.

TL;DR: BSX with vein offers the best long term AFS and OS and, overall, BAP appears superior to prosthetic BSX, which is associated with a significantly higher early failure rate than BSX.
Journal ArticleDOI
Obesity and Thrombosis
TL;DR: Obesity appears to be associated with thrombosis via several mechanisms that are all improved by weight loss, including the actions of so-called adipocytokines from adipose tissue.
