Summary

This study follows 500 people with peripheral artery disease (PAD) who undergo a procedure to open blocked leg arteries. Researchers check blood and heart ultrasound before and after the procedure to find hidden heart injury. The goal is to see if certain markers can predict future heart problems or death, helping doctors better manage these patients.
