Impact of concomitant peripheral artery disease on contrast-induced acute kidney injury and mortality in patients with acute coronary syndrome after percutaneous coronary intervention
Subclinical peripheral artery disease (PAD) might be associated with pathophysiology of contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI). We hypothesized that concomitant PAD in patients with the acute coronary syndrome (ACS) would represent a high-risk subgroup with a greater incidence of CI-AKI, both...

Summary: | Subclinical peripheral artery disease (PAD) might be associated with pathophysiology of contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI). We hypothesized that concomitant PAD in patients with the acute coronary syndrome (ACS) would represent a high-risk subgroup with a greater incidence of CI-AKI, both of which lead to higher mortality after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Six hundred and seventy-five consecutive patients with ACS who underwent PCI and examination of ankle-brachial index (ABI) were analyzed retrospectively. The presence of PAD was defined as an ABI |
