Body composition and ankle-brachial index in Ghanaians with asymptomatic peripheral arterial disease in a tertiary hospital.

BMC obesity

Yeboah K, Puplampu P, Yorke E, Antwi DA, Gyan B, Amoah AG.
PMID: 27239322
BMC Obes. 2016 May 13;3:27. doi: 10.1186/s40608-016-0107-3. eCollection 2016.

BACKGROUND: Ankle-brachial index (ABI) and indices of obesity are both use to indicate cardiovascular risk. However, association between body composition indices and ABI, a measure of peripheral arterial disease, is inconsistent in various study reports. In this study, we...
