The Hipertension Corelation with Ankle Brachial Index, and Anxiety Level in Elderly With Hipertension [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Elderly with hypertension will experience an increase in blood pressure due to decreased vascular function. Hypertension causes low ankle brachial index and high levels of anxiety in the elderly.

Non-invasive vascular assessment in the foot with diabetes: sensitivity and specificity of the ankle brachial index, toe brachial index and continuous wave Doppler for detecting peripheral arterial disease.

open access: yesJournal of diabetes and its complications, 2016
BACKGROUND & AIMS Non-invasive lower limb vascular assessment in people at risk of peripheral arterial disease (PAD) including those with diabetes is crucial.

Oxidized low-density lipoprotein and ankle-brachial pressure index in patients with clinically evident peripheral arterial disease

open access: yesClinics, 2010
OBJECTIVES: To investigate whether oxidized low-density lipoprotein is a suitable predictor of peripheral arterial disease severity. The role of oxidized low-density lipoprotein in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis has already been investigated.

The reliability of toe systolic pressure and the toe brachial index in patients with diabetes

open access: yesJournal of Foot and Ankle Research, 2010
Background The Ankle Brachial Index is a useful clinical test for establishing blood supply to the foot. However, there are limitations to this method when conducted on people with diabetes.

Brachial–ankle pulse wave velocity, cardio-ankle vascular index, and prognosis

open access: yes, 2018
Dai Ato Gakujutsu Shien Co., Ltd, Tokyo, Japan Background: Brachial–ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) and cardio-ankle vascular index (CAVI) are indices of arterial stiffness, and several studies have used these indices.

Ankle-brachial index and eicosapentaenoic acid/arachidonic acid ratio in smokers with type 2 diabetes mellitus

open access: yes, 2016
Introduction The ankle-brachial index (ABI) is an indicator of peripheral arterial damage and a low (ABI ≤ 1.0) or borderline (ABI = 1.00–1.09) value is associated with risk of cardiovascular disease events.

Diagnostic Accuracy Study of an Oscillometric Ankle-Brachial Index in Peripheral Arterial Disease: The Influence of Oscillometric Errors and Calcified Legs

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Background Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is an indicator of widespread atherosclerosis. However, most individuals with PAD, in spite of being at high cardiovascular risk, are asymptomatic. This fact, together with the limitations of the Doppler ankle-

ANKLE BRACHIAL INDEX (ABI)

open access: yes, 2013
ABI is a form of physiological measurement that provides valuable information about the functional status of peripheral arteries and predicts the risk of cardiovascular disease. It works by calculating ratio of systolic blood pressure of one of the arteries of ankle and that of brachial artery in the arm.

The Association Between Ankle-Brachial Index and Quality of Life in Chronic Hemodialysis Patients

open access: yes, 2010
Ankle-brachial index (ABI) is an important indicator of peripheral arterial disease (PAD) and PAD has a negative impact on quality of life (QOL). However, the correlation between ABI and QOL is unknown among chronic hemodialysis patients. Ankle-brachial
