چکیده
Background: Peripheral artery disease (PAD), indicated by abnormal ankle-brachial index (ABI), and metabolic syndrome (MetS) have been implicated as critical risk factors for increased cardiovascular mortality. However, data establishing associations between abnormal ABI and MetS are conflicting and few have examined the role of additional cardiovascular risk factors. The aim of this study is to examine the association between abnormal ABI and MetS and the effect of cardiovascular risk factors on this association.

High prevalence of peripheral arterial disease in persons with renal insufficiency: results from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 1999-2000.
BACKGROUND Although renal insufficiency is a recognized risk factor for coronary artery disease, little is known about the epidemiology of lower-extremity peripheral arterial disease (PAD) in persons with renal insufficiency. METHODS AND RESULTS We examined the cross-sectional association of PAD, defined as an ankle-brachial index (ABI) <0.9, and renal insufficiency, defined as an estimated c...

Background:The prevalence of diabetes mellitus is increasing worldwide and the relationship between peripheral vascular involvement and the complications of diabetes disease, such as retinopathy, has been reported in some studies but has not yet been fully proven. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between diabetes complications and peripheral and central vascular involve...

BACKGROUND Bilirubin, with recently recognized antioxidant and antiinflammatory activity, has emerged as a candidate for atheroprotection. We hypothesized that higher levels of bilirubin would reduce susceptibility to peripheral arterial disease (PAD). METHODS AND RESULTS We analyzed 7075 adults with data available on the ankle brachial index, serum total bilirubin level, and PAD risk factors...
متن کاملImpact of Peripheral Arterial Disease on Functional Limitation in Congestive Heart Failure: Results from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (1999–2004)
Background. Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) often coexists with congestive heart failure (CHF) and can be masked by symptoms of CHF such as functional limitation (FL), a common manifestation for both. Therefore, we sought to estimate the prevalence of PAD and its independent association with FL in CHF. Methods. We conducted a cross-sectional study on National Health and Nutrition Examination ...
