The reliability of the ankle brachial index: a systematic review

Journal of Foot and Ankle Research, 2019
BackgroundThe ankle brachial index (ABI) is widely used in clinical practice as a non-invasive method to detect the presence and severity of peripheral arterial disease (PAD).

Arterial compliance across the spectrum of ankle-brachial index: the multiethnic study of atherosclerosis [PDF]

, 2014
Objective: A low ankle-brachial index is associated with cardiovascular disease and reduced arterial compliance. A high ankle-brachial index is also associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular events. We tested the hypothesis that subjects with a

Toe brachial index and not ankle brachial index is appropriate in initial evaluation of peripheral arterial disease in type 2 diabetes

Diabetology & Metabolic Syndrome
Non-invasive clinic-based tools for assessing PAD are not without limitations. Therefore, costly tests like Doppler study, CT angiography and MR angiography are often required to make a diagnosis.

Bicycle exercise ankle brachial index recovery time as a novel metric for evaluating the hemodynamic significance of external iliac endofibrosis in competitive cyclists

Journal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques, 2021
Subtle radiographic findings can increase the challenge of diagnosing external iliac artery endofibrosis. We evaluated a new metric, the bicycle exercise ankle brachial index recovery time (BART), in a cohort of cyclists with symptomatic external iliac ...

Hemorheology, ankle brachial pressure index (ABPI) and toe brachial pressure index (TBPI) in metabolic syndrome

, 2014
Introduction Microvascular dysfunction is associated with metabolic syndrome (MetS) and its components. The objective of our study was to assess macro and microvascular abnormalities in MetS and compare the strength of association of the ankle brachial ...

Integrating yoga into anatomy and clinical medicine education: A holistic approach to learning

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Anatomical knowledge is fundamental for success in clinical settings. Unfortunately, anatomy education within professional health programs has experienced a continual decrease in contact hours and curricular content over the previous two decades, leading to deficits and potential gaps in anatomical science knowledge.

A Hybrid Rule‐Based and Large Language Model Artificial Intelligence System for Electrodiagnostic Reporting: Two‐Center Retrospective Evaluation

Muscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Electrodiagnostic (EDX) studies comprise nerve conduction studies (NCS) and needle electromyography (EMG). However, EDX reporting is heterogeneous across laboratories and often requires time‐consuming documentation. We aimed to evaluate a hybrid rule‐based and constrained large language model (LLM) system that drafts EDX ...

Advanced glycation end-products, measured as skin autofluorescence, associate with vascular stiffness in diabetic, pre-diabetic and normoglycemic individuals: a cross-sectional study

Cardiovascular Diabetology, 2021
Background Advanced glycation end-products are proteins that become glycated after contact with sugars and are implicated in endothelial dysfunction and arterial stiffening.
