Aim: The "2024 ACC/AHA/AACVPR/APMA/ABC/SCAI/SVM/SVN/SVS/SIR/VESS Guideline for the Management of Lower Extremity Peripheral Artery Disease" provides recommendations to guide clinicians in the treatment of patients with lower extremity peripheral artery disease across its multiple clinical presentation subsets (ie, asymptomatic, chronic symptomatic, chronic limb-threatening ischemia, and acute limb ischemia).
Methods: A comprehensive literature search was conducted from October 2020 to June 2022, encompassing studies, reviews, and other evidence conducted on human subjects that was published in English from PubMed, EMBASE, the Cochrane Library, CINHL Complete, and other selected databases relevant to this guideline. Additional relevant studies, published through May 2023 during the peer review process, were also considered by the writing committee and added to the evidence tables where appropriate.
Structure: Recommendations from the "2016 AHA/ACC Guideline on the Management of Patients With Lower Extremity Peripheral Artery Disease" have been updated with new evidence to guide clinicians. In addition, new recommendations addressing comprehensive care for patients with peripheral artery disease have been developed.

Aim: To describe the percentage of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) cases in the Maspalomas Basic Health Zone among males aged 65 to 75 years who are current or former smokers. Our secondary objectives were to define the distribution of known risk factors for AAA development in our sample and to facilitate early referral to the appropriate vascular surgery service. We also aim to describe the percentage of subaneurysm cases, offering ultrasound follow-up at our center.

Introduction: Sepsis remains a leading cause of mortality, with mortality from septic shock exceeding 40%. Standardized resuscitation (30 mL/kg) may cause adverse outcomes, including fluid overload or prolonged hypotension, emphasizing the need for individualized strategies. Sepsis-induced shock arises from varying degrees of vasodilation and hypovolemia, yet patients often present with similar clinical signs in the emergency department (ED).
