A retrospective analysis was performed comparing the effectiveness of ankle brachial index (ABI) to Doppler waveform analysis for the detection of peripheral arterial disease (PAD) in a group of patients with an estimated 31% prevalence of diabetes. A total of 21,199 ankle pressures and corresponding Doppler waveforms were correlated; 8,628, or 41%, of the ankle pressures were within normal limits; 8,335, or 40%, of the ankle pressures were below normal limits; and 4,042, or 19%, of the ankle pressures were noncompressible. Using ABI alone for screening in a population with a high incidence of diabetes is significantly limited because of noncompressible ankle pressures caused by arterial calcification. A total of 19% of the segments evaluated in this population yielded noncompressible vessels. The prevalence of PAD, detected by Doppler waveform analysis in the segments with non-compressible ankle pressures, was 69%. Additional modalities such as Doppler waveform analysis would further increase the accuracy of screening for PAD in this population. Alternately, using the ABI alone for the detection of PAD can be improved by interpreting ABIs greater than 1.2 as positive results because of the high prevalence of PAD in this group.

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) and peripheral arterial disease (PAD) share common risk factors. We assessed renal function and the prevalence of CKD in patients with PAD and investigated the characteristics of the risk factors for CKD in this population. Renal function of 421 patients with PAD was evaluated. Among the participants, 194 (46.1%) patients had decreased estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). The prevalence of CKD was much higher among patients with PAD. Hypertension (odds ratios [ORs] 2.156, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.413-3.289, P < .001), serum uric acid (OR 3.794, 95% CI 2.220-6.450, P < .001), and dyslipidemia (OR 1.755, 95% CI 1.123-2.745, P = .014) were significantly associated with CKD and the independent risk factors for CKD in patients with PAD. CKD is common and has a high prevalence in a population with PAD. Patients with PAD may be considered as a high-risk population for CKD. Recognition and modification of risk factors for CKD might beneficially decrease CKD incidence and improve prognosis in patients with PAD.
