Plantar fascia thickness in type 1 diabetes mellitus patients: Clinical associations and metabolic correlates

open access: yesJournal of Diabetes Investigation, EarlyView.
Ultrasound‐measured plantar fascia thickness is associated with microvascular complications and glycemic control in individuals with type 1 diabetes, suggesting PFT as a potential non‐invasive tool for clinical assessment. In addition, improved thickness values were observed in patients using automated insulin delivery systems.

Analysis of short-term blood pressure variability in pheochromocytoma/paraganglioma patients [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Data on short-term blood pressure variability (BPV), which is a well-established cardiovascular prognostic tool, in pheochromocytoma and paraganglioma (PPGL) patients is still lack and conflicting.

Improved prognosis prediction of all‐cause mortality and cardiovascular events by combined assessment of both ankle‐brachial index and brachial‐ankle pulse wave velocity in individuals with diabetes: The Kyushu prevention study for atherosclerosis, a prospective, multicenter survey

open access: yesJournal of Diabetes Investigation, EarlyView.
A novel algorithm combining ABI and baPWV was developed to predict mortality and CVD risk in individuals with diabetes. This algorithm improved the accuracy of mortality and CVD risk assessment and was independent from the Framingham Risk Score. ABSTRACT Aims/Introduction People with diabetes exhibit early‐stage cardiovascular disease (CVD).

How should you evaluate an asymptomatic patient with a femoral or iliac artery bruit? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Perform an ankle-arm index (AAI, or ankle- brachial index) test to evaluate for peripheral artery disease (PAD) (strength of recommendation [SOR]: B, cohort studies). If the test detects PAD, recommend steps to modify cardiovascular risk factors (SOR: B,

Biomass Fuel Use and Cardiac Function in Nepali Women. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
BackgroundExposure to household air pollution (HAP) from cooking with biomass fuel affects billions of people. We hypothesized that HAP from woodsmoke, compared to other household fuels, was associated with adverse cardiovascular outcomes, of which there

Normative data of Ankle brachial pressure Index and Toe brachial index in normal healthy male adult using fully automated vascular Doppler

open access: yesJournal of Family Medicine and Primary Care, 2023
Context: Peripheral vascular disease affects some 12%–14% of the general population, and the majority of people with the disease are asymptomatic. Risk factors for it are smoking, diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, obesity, and syndrome X ...
