Change in Ankle-Brachial Index Over Time in a Screened Japanese Cohort　– The Okinawa Peripheral Arterial Disease Study –

Comparative Study of Physiological Indicators of Cardiovascular Fitness such as Heart Rate Variability, Harvard Step Test, Ankle-brachial Index, and Body mass Index in Rural and Urban Adolescent Girls

“…ABI values ≤0.9 are very good indicators for presence of lower extremity arterial stenosis. [35] Kajikawa et al have shown an increase in endothelial dysfunction in association with low and borderline ABI. [36] Various studies done by multiple researchers have shown an association between low values of ABI with a higher risk of stroke, myocardial infarction, other cardiovascular morbidities, and mortalities.…”

Correlation Between Ankle Brachial Index and Lower Limbs Digital Pulse Oximetry: A Referral Center Experience, Prevalence Study

“…In regards to our experience, most of the patients were younger than 65 years old and had a low atherosclerosis probability. This could also explain why there were no critical observations in ABI classifications [20][21][22]. Our study population consisted of patients mostly under the age of 65 years and patients who had subsidized insurance (this refers to people with unstable or no economic income).…”
