As most patients with PAD are asymptomatic, this condition is largely neglected in clinical practice. Type 2 diabetes (T2DM) patients have higher prevalence of PAD. Therefore, early detection and intervention of diabetic PAD are very important. Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a group of interrelated metabolic risk factors, a predictor of poor prognosis in elderly patients with ASCVD. Recently, many of the metabolic risk factors as well as the overall concept of MetS itself have sparked a great deal of debate regarding their precise roles in PAD.Objective: To evaluate the relationship between metabolic syndrome (MetS) and peripheral arterial disease (PAD) in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM).Methods: Two hundred and eighty-one elderly T2DM patients admitted to Beijing Tongren Hospital from October 2016 to December 2017 were divided into PAD group (n=136) and non-PAD (NPAD) group (n=145). Their medical records, physical examination parameters and laboratory testing parameters were later recorded and analyzed by multivariate logistic regression analysis.Results: No significant difference was detected in general clinical data and laboratory testing parameters between the two groups (P> 0.05). The incidence of MetS was significantly higher in PAD group than in NPAD group (88.2% vs 70.3%, P=0.001). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the risk of PAD was 1.762-fold higher in MetS patients after adjustment for age, sex, history of smoking and alcohol consumption, WC, SBP, serum TC and HbA1c level, eGFR and duration of DM (95% CI: 1.205– 6.330, P=0.016).Conclusion: MetS closely correlates with PAD in elderly T2DM patients, though no significant difference has been detected in their metabolic indicators.Keywords: elderly, type 2 diabetes, metabolic syndrome, peripheral arterial disease
