An area under the curve (AUC) indicative of a predictive value for CAS (≥20%) was found for several parameters. CAS was measured using multi-slice computed tomographic (MSCT) angiography.Īge, maximal baPWV, duration of diabetes, current smoking, the UK Prospective Diabetes Study (UKPDS) Risk Engine score, American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association (ACC/AHA) risk estimator score, the Framingham risk calculator score, and coronary artery calcium score were greater in patients with CAS than in those without CAS. An automatic pulse waveform analyzer was used to measure baPWV. The study group included 83 consecutive patients over 30 years old with type 2 diabetes who complained of vague chest discomfort. We evaluated the ability of brachial ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) to predict coronary artery stenosis (CAS) in patients with type 2 diabetes, and compared the predictive power of baPWV to that of well-known cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk calculators.
