Relation of levels of hemostatic factors and inflammatory markers to the ankle brachial index

Relation of levels of hemostatic factors and inflammatory markers to the ankle brachial index

Associations between hemostatic and inflammatory markers relative to the ankle brachial index (ABI), an indicator of the presence and severity of peripheral arterial disease (PAD), are not fully understood. We studied relations among selected hemostatic factors, inflammatory markers, and the ankle b...

Zusammenfassung:Associations between hemostatic and inflammatory markers relative to the ankle brachial index (ABI), an indicator of the presence and severity of peripheral arterial disease (PAD), are not fully understood. We studied relations among selected hemostatic factors, inflammatory markers, and the ankle brachial index (ABI) in patients with and without peripheral arterial disease (PAD). Participants were 370 men and women with ABI
