| Popis: | OBJECTIVE: Brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) is an indicator of atherosclerotic cardiovascular risks. To identify patients with coronary atherosclerosis before the onset of angina pectoris or myocardial infarction will be desirable. METHODS: We measured the ankle-brachial index and baPWV in 150 consecutive patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). Virtual histology intravascular ultrasound (VH-IVUS) imaging was available in target lesions of 130 patients with symptomatic CAD before percutaneous intervention. Patients were divided into two groups: baPWV of greater than or equal to 1600 cm/s (74 patients) and baPWV of less than 1600 cm/s (56 patients). RESULTS: Patient age was 66±8.33 years in baPWV of greater than or equal to 1600 cm/s group versus 56±10.27 years in baPWV of less than 1600 cm/s group (P |
