Aims: Increased level of glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) is associated with an increased prevalence of peripheral arterial disease (PAD). This study aimed to assess the relationship between the anatomical distribution of symptomatic PAD lesions in patients with type 2 diabetes and HbA1c levels at the time of PAD diagnosis. Patients and methods: A retrospective study was conducted at King Abdullah University Hospital during the period August 2011 to December 2015. Consecutive patients with type 2 diabetes presented with symptomatic PAD confirmed by computed tomography-angiography (CTA) were included in this study. CTA images were reviewed. Relevant information including demographic data, PAD symptoms, comorbidities, HbA1c level, lipid profile, C-reactive protein and the mean platelets volume were retrieved from medical records. Results: A total of 332 patients with type 2 diabetes (255 males and 77 females) were included in this study. The mean HbA1c at the time of PAD diagnosis was 8.68% (±2.06%). The prevalence of hemodynamic relevant atherosclerotic lesions of the superficial femoral artery, popliteal artery, leg vessels, femoro-popliteal, and crural segments was significantly higher in patients with HbA1c >7.5% compared with patients with HbA1c ⩽7.5%. Conclusion: The anatomical distribution of symptomatic PAD in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus differed significantly according to HbA1c level at the time of PAD diagnosis.

Abstract Introduction: The high rate of diabetes mellitus index (DM), along with the increase in cardiovascular compromise that DM favors, and the scarcity of epidemiological data regarding the prevalence of peripheral arterial disease (PAD) in this population, make it important to study risk factors associated with the development of PAD in the population with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2). Objective: To estimate the prevalence of PAD together with the associated factors in a sample of patients with DM2, treated in the Family Health Strategies (FHS) program, in the municipality of Pindamonhangaba, SP. Methods: Quantitative research in a cross-sectional study of 38 individuals who were diagnosed with DM2, between 40 and 77 years old, selected by convenience sampling and treated in the family health program in two different districts of the municipality. The method consisted of the evaluation of personal and anthropometric data, anamnesis and physical examination including the ankle-brachial index (ABI). Results: PAD was present in 21.1% (95%CI: 16.9 to 25.8) of the investigated population. Risk factors observed were age range of 51 to 69 years (75%), overweight (50%), systemic arterial hypertension (SAH) (100%), smoking (62.5%) and physical inactivity (87.5%). Conclusion: The prevalence of PAD was more than a fifth of those diagnosed with DM2, and the most prevalent associated risk factors were SAH, physical inactivity, smoking and overweight with and without PAD.

In diabetes patients, urban lifestyle has been concerned as one of the risk factors for peripheral arterial disease (PAD). The aims of this study were to find out the prevalence and associated risk factors of PAD in type 2 diabetes patients who live in a non-urban community area. A total of 885 participants with type 2 diabetes mellitus were enrolled from six primary care units in the health network centered at Naresuan University Hospital, Phitsanulok, between May and June 2018. Ankle-brachial index (ABI) was performed in all subjects using a vascular screening device. PAD was defined by an ABI value of 0.9 or lesser at least on one leg. The predictors of PAD were analyzed using multiple logistic regression. The prevalence of PAD was 7.2% among 884 evaluable patients. Diabetic neuropathy and a history of macrovascular complications were significant predictors of PAD.
