OBJECTIVES This study sought to determine the association of chronic kidney disease (CKD) with high ankle brachial index (ABI) measurement and to compare its strength with that of CKD with a low ABI. BACKGROUND CKD is an important risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD) events. A high ABI, a marker of lower extremity arterial stiffness, is associated with CVD events and mortality. The as...
M e t h o d s Design: Cohort study with a mean follow-up of 8.3 years. Setting: Native American communities in the United States. Participants: 4393 Native Americans 45 to 74 years of age (mean age 56 y, 59% men) who were followed for all-cause and CVD mortality. Risk factors: Baseline ABI categorized as low (ABI < 0.9), normal (ABI ≥ 0.9 and ≤ 1.4), or high (ABI > 1.4). Potential confounders i...
BACKGROUND The ankle-brachial index (ABI) is an indicator of peripheral arterial damage and a low (ABI ≤ 1.0) or borderline (ABI = 1.00-1.09) value is associated with risk of cardiovascular disease events. A low ratio of serum eicosapentaenoic acid to arachidonic acid (EPA/AA) is also a risk factor for cardiovascular disease events. This study examined associations between the ABI and the EPA/A...
BACKGROUND The ankle brachial index (ABI) is a well-established tool for screening and diagnosis of peripheral arterial disease (PAD). In this study we assessed the validity of ABI determination using a pocket Doppler device compared with automatic vascular laboratory measurement in patients suspected of PAD. METHODS Consecutive patients with symptoms of PAD referred for ABI measurement betwe...
BACKGROUND The recommendation of screening with ankle brachial index (ABI) in asymptomatic individuals is controversial. The aims of the present study were to develop and validate a pre-screening test to select candidates for ABI measurement in the Spanish population 50-79 years old, and to compare its predictive capacity to current Inter-Society Consensus (ISC) screening criteria. METHODS AN...
AIM Both the ankle brachial index (ABI) and brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) are surrogates for atherosclerosis. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the ability of ABI and baPWV to predict stroke outcome in patients with first-ever non-cardioembolic stroke. METHODS This study included consecutive patients with first-ever non-cardioembolic stroke admitted within 1 week after onset to...
BACKGROUND The clinical utility of ankle-brachial index (ABI) is not clear in subjects with less severe or calcified vessel. Therefore, we investigated the usefulness of color Doppler ultrasonography for diagnosing peripheral artery disease (PAD) in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) subjects. METHODS We analyzed 324 T2DM patients who concurrently underwent ABI and carotid intima-media thickness...
Background: To evaluate the ability of Ankle/Brachial Index (ABI), that is a sensitive and specific test for detection of PAD, to foretell the possibility of ischemic heart diseases in diabetic patients. Materials and Methods: All of diabetic patients who visited in our diabetes research center between May 2000 and May 2001 and were confirmed diabetics since 2 or more years ago were enrolled ...
2566 Background: ABI is a cremophor-free formulation of paclitaxel which has been reported to have a lower incidence of HSRs. A retrospective evaluation was performed to determine the incidence of HSRs to ABI in pts with a history of HSRs to P. METHODS A query of the institutions medication database was performed to identify pts who received ABI during the evaluation period 2/05 - 5/09. A wai...
INTRODUCTION Peripheral arterial disease, as measured by the ankle-brachial index (ABI), is prevalent among the elderly, and is associated with functional performance, assessed by the 6-minute walk test (6MWT). Executive cognitive function (ECF) impairments are also prevalent in this population, but no existing study has investigated the association between ECF and functional performance in an ...
