Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Transmucosal Oxygen concentration of the stomach and duodenum

    Repeated measurments at baseline 3, and 12 months after the surgical or endovascular treatment of chronic mesenteric ischemia (CMI) and median arcuate ligament syndrome (MALS) shall be performed. With the help of gastoscopy assisted Laser Doppler flowmeter and visible light spectroscopy, transmocosal SaO2, rHb concentration, flow and velocity in arbitrary units shall be measured.

    Baseline, 3 months and 12 months

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Ischemia biomarkers

    10 years

  • Health-related quality of life in the patients with chronic mesenteric ischemia

    10 years

  • Clinical outcomes of revascularization in the patients with chronic mesenteric ischemia

    10 years

  • Transserosal microcirculation assessment

    10 years

Study Arms (3)

GALS symptomatic patients group

Patients with chronic mesenteric ischemia (CMI) symptoms shall be investigated with gastroscopy-assisted laser Doppler flowmetry and visible light spectroscopy. The examination will be performed before and after the surgical or endovascular treatment for CMI. Besides, the patients treated with either open or laparoscopic mesenteric bypass shall be examined during the operation with transserosal microcirculatory assessment of the stomach and duodenum using laser Doppler flowmetry and visible light spectroscopy.

CMI caused by median arcuate ligament syndrome (MALS)

Patients with chronic mesenteric ischemia (CMI) symptoms caused by MALS shall be investigated with gastroscopy-assisted laser Doppler flowmetry and visible light spectroscopy. The examination will be performed before and after the surgical or endovascular treatment for MALS. Besides, the patients treated with an either open or laparoscopic technique for MALS shall be examined during the operation with transserosal microcirculatory assessment of the stomach and duodenum using laser Doppler flowmetry and visible light spectroscopy.

Healthy individuals without CMI or MALS

A group of healthy individuals with no symptoms of CMI or MALS shall be investigated with gastroscopy-assisted laser Doppler flowmetry and visible light spectroscopy.

Eligibility Criteria

Sexall
Healthy VolunteersYes
Age GroupsChild (0-17), Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

Patients suspected of chronic mesenteric ischemia caused by either atherosclerosis or median arcuate ligament syndrome and confirmed with CTA, duplex ultrasound, and clinical examination shall be included in the study. The included patients are referred to the Department of Vascular Surgery for investigation and treatment of the CMI and MALS.

You may qualify if:

  • Clinical chronic mesenteric ischemia caused by either atherosclerosis or median arcuate ligament syndrome

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients unable to go through gastroscopy
