Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

Vascular Medicine focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and outcomes of vascular diseases. Recent articles investigate venous obstruction, chronic venous insufficiency, and superficial venous incompetence using diagnostic tools like duplex ultrasonography and air plethysmography. The journal also covers vascular manifestations of systemic diseases such as Behçet's syndrome and diabetes, and evaluates treatments including endovenous therapy, sclerotherapy, and mechanical thrombectomy. Additionally, it addresses risk stratification for conditions like pulmonary embolism and abdominal aortic aneurysms, and explores patient-reported outcomes and bleeding risks associated with vascular interventions.
