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

open access: yesDiabetes & 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.

Critical Review of the Ankle Brachial Index [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Cardiology Reviews, 2008
Ankle brachial index (ABI) has been utilized in the management of peripheral arterial disease (PAD).ABI is a surrogate marker of atherosclerosis and recent studies indicate its utility as a predictor of future cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality. Even so, this critical test is underutilized.

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.

open access: yesPLoS 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

open access: yesScientific 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.

Ankle Brachial Index Combined with Framingham Risk Score to Predict Cardiovascular Events and Mortality: A Meta-analysis

open access: yesJournal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), 2008
Context Prediction models to identify healthy individuals at high risk of cardiovascular disease have limited accuracy. A low ankle brachial index is an indicator of atherosclerosis and has the potential to improve prediction.

Ankle–Brachial Index and Cardiovascular Outcome [PDF]

open access: yesAngiology, 2015
We read the article ‘‘The Ankle-Brachial Index is Associated With Cardiovascular Complications After Noncardiac Surgery’’ by Carmo et al with interest. They evaluated the role of ankle–brachial index (ABI) as a predictor of cardiovascular (CV) complications in patients with and without an abnormal ABI submitted to noncardiac surgery.

Levels of ankle–brachial index and the risk of diabetes mellitus complications

open access: yesBMJ Open Diabetes Research & Care, 2020
Objective We sought to compare the association of categorized ankle–brachial index (ABI) with mortality and complications of diabetes in persons with no symptoms of peripheral arterial disease (PAD) and in primary cardiovascular disease prevention ...

Ankle-Brachial Index and Peripheral Arterial Disease [PDF]

open access: yesDas Gesundheitswesen, 2005
Patients with peripheral arterial disease including those with intermittent claudication have a high risk for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular morbidity and mortality. The outcome of patients with intermittent claudication is less limited by local complications in the leg than by the systemic complications of coronary and cerebral vessels. About 30 %
