Diabetes and Vascular Disease in Different Arterial Territories

Abstract: OBJECTIVEThe aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between diabetes and different phenotypes of peripheral vascular disease (lower extremity peripheral artery disease [PAD], carotid artery stenosis [CAS], and abdominal aortic aneurysm [AAA]).RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODSPrevalence of vascular disease was evaluated in 3,696,778 participants of the Life Line Screening survey between 2003 and 2008. PAD was defined as ankle-brachial pressure index <0.90 or prior revascularization, CAS as ≥50% stenosi… Show more

“…Therefore, assuming the population paying for screening represents a higher socioeconomic sample, our results may underestimate the burder of PAD. However, prevalence of PAD and CAS in the dataset were similar to other cohorts suggesting good external validity of our dataset [12,24]. …”

“…The dataset contained screening results collected between 2003 and 2008 from 3,696,778 mostly self-referred adults in all 50 US states. Before undergoing the screening procedure, individuals completed a questionnaire that included information on demographics, smoking, exercise, cardiovascular risk factors, medical comorbidities, and family history of atherosclerosis and vascular disease [11,12]. For the purposes of this study, peripheral vascular disease is defined as lower extremity periphery artery disease (PAD) or carotid artery stenosis (CAS).…”

“…Likewise, the fee associated with the screening exam, although modest, may have introduced further selection bias by underrepresenting individuals with low socioeconomic status. However, our previous analyses of income suggest an overall fairly good representation of a broad range of socioeconomic status (Shah et al, 2014). …”

“…The geographic distribution of the sample was similar to that of the overall population of the United States. The sample also included a broad representation of socioeconomic status, as represented by participant zip-code (Shah et al, 2014). As we have published previously, the prevalence of different cardiovascular risk factors in this population database was similar to those of the general US adult population (Savji et al, 2013).…”

“…In addition, associations of lifestyle on different phenotypes of CVD should be studied. In a study of 3,696,778 self-referred participants in the Life Line Screening survey between 2003 and 2008, diabetes was associated with increased odds of peripheral artery disease (odds ratio [OR] 1.42, 95 % CI 1.41-1.44) and carotid artery stenosis (OR 1.45, 95 % CI 1.43-1.47), but a decreased odds of abdominal aortic aneurysm (OR 0.86, 95 % CI 0.84-0.88) [48]. In addition, more work is needed to ascertain which lifestyle components or combinations thereof provide the greatest benefit in particular subgroups of disease risk.…”
