Brief summary

The study aims to determine how expression levels of biomarkers for peripheral arterial disease change over time in response to exercise therapy, surgical or endovascular intervention, and whether they can be used to predict disease progression.

Detailed description

Several studies have identified markers in the blood (called biomarkers) that are associated with peripheral arterial disease, or clogging up of the blood supply to the leg. There is little understanding however regarding how these respond to intervention, and how they are related to walking distance. This study will increase the understanding of the relationship between peripheral arterial disease state and biomarker expression and enable us to work towards the development of new targets for treatment. Participants will be invited to undertake questionnaires and dedicated walking tests alongside regular blood tests to check their biomarker levels. These will be undertaken on a regular basis so the investigators can see what happens over time, such as after a surgical procedure, and see if these markers go back towards normal following intervention.
