Audible Bleeding contributor and vascular surgery fellow Richa Kalsi (@KalsiMD) is joined by vascular fellow Eva Urrechaga (@urrechisme), fourth year medical student Leona Dogbe (@ldogbe4), JVS Editor-in-Chief, Dr. Thomas Forbes (@TL_Forbes), and JVS-VS editor Dr. John Curci (@CurciAAA) to discuss two great articles in the JVS family of journals. The first article analyzes amputation trends over 12 years in Oklahoma, and identifies risk factors that can be used to target intervention strategies. The second article explores the role of toll-like receptor 4 in skeletal muscle damage caused by chronic limb-threatening ischemia. This episode hosts Dr. Kelly Kempe (@KellyKempe) and Dr. Ali Navi (@VascularChap), authors of these two papers.
