Conclusions:
The prevalence of Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD) based on ABI measurement in the cohort of 100 patients admitted to hospital with diagnostic of ACS or outpatients after an ACS (within last 6 months), ambulatory checked was of %( patients with ABI values < 0.9). ABI measurement is also considered as a generalized atherosclerotic marker that may allow identifying patients at high risk for developing cardio or cerebrovascular events: on top of the patients with ABI values lower than 0.9 there were those ones with ABI values > 1.4 ( %) indicating arterial stiffness and, as already mentioned, risk of major cardiovascular events. The main variables associated with a higher risk of PAD that have been identified among this population were the following risk factors: hypertension, diabetes mellitus, present smoking or history of smoking and history of cardiovascular diseases (p values of statistical significance are illustrated below): Risk factors Hypertension Diabetes mellitus Smoking Dyslipemia History CV disease Odds Ratio (95%CI) ( ( ( ( ( ) ) ) ) ) Risk Ratio (95%CI) ( ( ( ( ( ) ) ) ) ) X2 ........ ........ ........ ........ ........ p-value ........ ........ ........ ........ ........

The logistic regression calculation (taking into account all these risk factors simultaneously) identified that hypertension, diabetes mellitus, present smoking or history of smoking, dyslipemia as well as history of cardiovascular disease are all risk factors with major impact on Peripheral Arterial Disease induction. % of the major cardiovascular events (vascular death, myocardial infarction and stroke/TIA) occurred during the 6 months of follow up in the group of patients with ABI values < 0.9 and only % in those with normal ABI values. % of the patients were on antiplatelet treatment at the inclusion visit: % acetylsalicylic acid, % thienopyridine and % others, as monotherapy or in combinations.
