Non-invasive assessment of peripheral arterial disease: Automated ankle brachial index measurement and pulse volume analysis compared to duplex scan [PDF]

SAGE Open Medicine, 2016
Objectives: This cross-sectional study aimed to individually and cumulatively compare sensitivity and specificity of the (1) ankle brachial index and (2) pulse volume waveform analysis recorded by the same automated device, with the presence or absence ...

Association of hemoglobin with ankle-brachial index in general population

Clinics, 2016
OBJECTIVES: Previous studies have demonstrated that both low and high hemoglobin concentrations are predictive of adverse cardiovascular outcomes in various populations. However, an association of hemoglobin with the ankle-brachial index, which is widely

Common carotid intima media thickness and ankle-brachial pressure index correlate with local but not global atheroma burden:a cross sectional study using whole body magnetic resonance angiography [PDF]

, 2014
Common carotid intima media thickness (CIMT) and ankle brachial pressure index (ABPI) are used as surrogate marker of atherosclerosis, and have been shown to correlate with arterial stiffness, however their correlation with global atherosclerotic burden ...

Mean and variability of annual haemoglobin A1c are associated with high-risk peripheral artery disease

Diabetes & Vascular Disease Research, 2020
Background: Glucose variability is predictive of cardiovascular events and all-cause mortality. However, the association between peripheral artery disease and glucose variability has not been thoroughly investigated.

Comparative study of pressure (ankle-brachial pressure index) and flow (strain gauge plethysmography and reactive hyperaemia) measurements in diagnosis of peripheral arterial disease in patients with severe aortic stenosis.

PLoS ONE, 2019
BackgroundThe measurement of the ankle-brachial pressure index is a straightforward method for the detection of peripheral disease in the lower limbs. Only a few old studies with small numbers of patients have been conducted comparing the gold standard ...

Differential associations of ankle and brachial blood pressures with diabetes and cardiovascular diseases: cross-sectional study

Scientific Reports, 2021
Increased brachial systolic blood-pressure (BP) predicts diabetes (T2DM) but is not fully effective. Value of absolute ankle systolic BP for T2DM compared to brachial systolic BP is not known.
