Abstract BackgroundWe aimed to evaluate the prevalence and risk factors of depression in type 2 diabetes mellitus with lower extremity arterial disease. Methods: Four hundred and forty-one patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus were recruited from Peking University of International Hospital. All patients completed the Self-rating Depression Scale, which includes 20 items, using a 4-point scale. Univariable and multivariable logistic regression was conducted to investigate risk factors of depression in patients with lower extremity arterial disease. Results: The prevalence of depression in lower extremity arterial disease group was significantly higher than that in non- lower extremity arterial disease group(25% vs 16%, P = 0.018). In lower extremity arterial disease group(n = 215), depression score(46.18 ± 7.38 vs 44.03 ± 6.53, P = 0.003) significantly increased compared with non lower extremity arterial disease group(n = 226). Compared with male depressive patients, the proportion of female depressive patients(38% vs 15%, P = 0.003) was significantly higher in lower extremity arterial disease group. The depression score of female depressive patients(57.83 ± 3.29 vs 55.26 ± 1.59, P = 0.003) was significantly higher than that of male depressive patients. An increased risk of depression in female patients(crude OR: 2.50, 95% CI: 1.38–4.54, P = 0.003; adjusted OR: 2.34, 95% CI: 1.26–4.36, P = 0.008) and in patients with low body mass index(crude OR: 0.88, 95% CI: 0.80–0.96, P = 0.005; adjusted OR: 0.89, 95% CI: 0.81–0.97, P = 0.011) was detected. Conclusion: Both low body mass index and female are risk factors for depression.

Lower Extremity Arterial Disease

Osteopontin (OPN) is involved in the atherosclerotic and inflammatory process. In this article, we examined the relationship between circulating OPN levels with lower extremity arterial disease (LEAD) in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Seventy individuals with T2DM and 66 individuals without T2DM were recruited. Diagnosis of LEAD was based on the absence of triphasic waveform on the pedal arteries. Plasma OPN levels were determined by Luminex Multiplex immunoassay. LEAD was present in 34 (48.6%) patients with T2DM. In the diabetes cohort, individuals with LEAD had higher plasma OPN concentrations than those without LEAD (geometric mean [95% confidence intervals]; 43.4 [37.5-50.4] vs 26.1 [22.9-29.8] ng/mL, respectively, P < .001). Multivariable analysis showed that presence of LEAD independently associated with higher OPN levels in subjects with T2DM, with marginal statistical significance ( P = .049). In both cohorts, plasma OPN concentrations were negatively associated with ankle-brachial index values ( P < .05). In the total sample, there was a gradual increase of OPN levels across subgroups with triphasic, biphasic, and monophasic/blunted waveforms ( P < .001). In conclusion, plasma OPN levels are associated with the presence and severity of LEAD in subjects with T2DM. Further studies are needed to investigate the role of OPN in the pathogenesis and progression of LEAD.

Background Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a risk factor for lower extremity arterial disease. Cilostazol expresses antiplatelet, anti‐inflammatory, and vasodilator actions and improves the claudication intermittent symptoms. We investigated the efficacy and safety of adjunctive cilostazol to clopidogrel‐treated patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus exhibiting symptomatic lower extremity arterial disease, in the prevention of ischemic vascular events and improvement of the claudication intermittent symptoms. Methods and Results In a prospective 2‐arm, multicenter, open‐label, phase 4 trial, patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus with intermittent claudication receiving clopidogrel (75 mg/d) for at least 6 months, were randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio, either to continue to clopidogrel monotherapy, without receiving placebo cilostazol (391 patients), or to additionally receive cilostazol, 100 mg twice/day (403 patients). The median duration of follow‐up was 27 months. The primary efficacy end point, the composite of acute ischemic stroke/transient ischemic attack, acute myocardial infarction, and death from vascular causes, was significantly reduced in patients receiving adjunctive cilostazol compared with the clopidogrel monotherapy group (sex‐adjusted hazard ratio [HR], 0.468; 95% CI, 0.252–0.870; P =0.016). Adjunctive cilostazol also significantly reduced the stroke/transient ischemic attack events (sex‐adjusted HR, 0.38; 95% CI, 0.15–0.98; P =0.046) and improved the ankle‐brachial index and pain‐free walking distance values ( P =0.001 for both comparisons). No significant difference in the bleeding events, as defined by Bleeding Academic Research Consortium criteria, was found between the 2 groups (sex‐adjusted HR, 1.080; 95% CI, 0.579–2.015; P =0.809). Conclusions Adjunctive cilostazol to clopidogrel‐treated patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus with symptomatic lower extremity arterial disease may lower the risk of ischemic events and improve intermittent claudication symptoms, without increasing the bleeding risk, compared with clopidogrel monotherapy.

Lower Extremity Arterial Disease

Among all peripheral arterial diseases, lower extremity arterial disease is a serious condition in subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus, associated with important disability, cardiovascular risk, and socio-economic burden. Patients with both conditions generally display poorer prognosis of affected limbs compared with non-diabetic subjects, leading to increased rates of adverse limb events including amputations. Nonetheless, awareness on lower extremity arterial disease remains somehow suboptimal in the diabetic population, partly related to an atypical clinical presentation in several cases. A regular and appropriate screening for lower extremity arterial disease in patients suffering from type 2 diabetes mellitus is therefore recommended. Affected subjects should receive optimal medical treatment including careful management of the different cardiovascular risk factors through a healthy lifestyle, a regular and structured physical activity, the administration of lipid-lowering, antidiabetic drugs, and (when indicated) antihypertensive and antithrombotic drugs. This review aims to outline current evidence about lower extremity arterial disease in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, in order to elucidate its epidemiology, pathophysiology, screening and diagnosis, and management options.
