“…The standard protocol in the laboratory included cross-sectional and longitudinal gray-scale and color Doppler imaging. 18 A nailfold capillaroscopy examination was performed via widefield capillary microscopy using a Nikon SMZ 800 stereomicroscope (Nicon Instruments, Tokyo, Japan). All fingers except the thumbs were examined.…”

Correct standard conduction velocity and CVD testing in patients with SPR suggest that vasomotor disturbances may occur in CTD regardless of peripheral neuropathy. The lack of relationship between SSR and microangiopathy could confirm that these 2 processes occur independently in patients with CTD-related SRP. Autonomic nervous system impairment together with normal peripheral nerve function suggest the central origin of CTD-related SRP.

“…A research assistant who completed a two-week training in cardiovascular diagnostics collected all ABI measurements using Doppler-detected (Summit Doppler) systolic blood pressure of the brachial, dorsalis pedis, and posterior tibialis arteries bilaterally. We calculated ABI by dividing the highest of the four ankle pressures by the highest of the two brachial pressures [19]. …”

HIV infection is associated with arterial stiffness, but no studies have assessed this relationship in sub-Saharan Africa. We enrolled 205 participants over 40 years old in Uganda: 105 on antiretroviral therapy for a median of 7 years, and a random sample of 100 age and gender-matched HIV-uninfected controls from the clinic catchment area. The prevalence of arterial stiffness (ABI>1.2) was 33%, 18%, 19% and 2% in HIV+ men, HIV- men, HIV+ women, and HIV- women. In multivariable models adjusted for cardiovascular risk factors, HIV+ individuals had over double the prevalence of arterial stiffness (APR 2.86, 95%CI 1.41–5.79, P=0.003).

“…12 The combined color and pulsed wave Doppler has a 87% to 88% sensitivity, and 95% to 99% specificity for detecting significant arterial lesions in patients with lower extremity PAD as compared with gold standard angiography in the present literature. 15 ABI. Vascular technicians measured patients' ABI at rest and following a distance-limited (1000 meters) treadmill test to confirm PAD diagnosis using a handheld Doppler instrument (Imexlab 9000; Imex Medical Systems Inc, Golden, Colo).…”

One-third of patients were treated invasively following PAD diagnosis. Patients' health status was considered in providers' decision to refer patients for invasive treatment, but having a proximal lesion was the strongest predictor. This study also found some important first indications of site variations in offering invasive treatment among patients with PAD. Future work is needed to further document these variations in care.
