Increased prevalence of peripheral arterial disease in patients with obese sarcopenia undergoing hemodialysis

Background peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is a common complication in patients undergoing dialysis, which reduces the quality of life and increases the risk of mortality. Recent literature has documented an association between increased visceral fat (VF) content and a proatherogenic factors in en...

Zusammenfassung:Background peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is a common complication in patients undergoing dialysis, which reduces the quality of life and increases the risk of mortality. Recent literature has documented an association between increased visceral fat (VF) content and a proatherogenic factors in end-stage renal disease. The present study investigated the prevalence of PAD in patients undergoing hemodialysis. PAD was determined as an ankle-brachial index
