“…A possible explanation for this result would be the false elevation of ABI due to arterial calcification. In fact, a previous study has reported similar findings [19]. Longer duration of diabetes is also predominantly associated with distal arteriosclerosis [20].…”

“…The previous study found a relationship between a low ABI and high all-cause and cardiovascular disease mortality in patients with MetS [32]. However, the unchanged ABI in this study may be explained by the fact that ABI is likely to be unreliable because of falsely increased values, or a marked decrease in ankle pressure measurement, caused by medial arterial calcification and incompressibility in advanced-age subject [33]. Meanwhile, because of interference with circulation through the lower extremities, aPWV cannot be estimated properly in patients with PAD [13, 34].…”
