Abstract：Objective To study the ankle brachial index characteristics of diabetic patients with cerebral infarction,and judge the predictive value of early.Methods The clinical data of 228 cases of patients in hospital diabetes were analyzed,and the ankle brachial index in patients with diabetes mellitus were analyzed.All 228 caseswere divided into ABI normal group (ABI ≥0.9) and ABI reduced group (ABI ＜ 0.9),and the cerebral infarction incidence between two groups was compared.Results In patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus,the ABI reduction rate was 28.9％ (66/228) ; more than 60 year old diabetic ABI reduction rate was significantly higher than that in patients under 60 years of age[41.0％ (50/122) vs 15.1％ (16/106)] ; the ABI reduced group of diabetic patients with cerebral infarction incidence rate was significantly higher than that in normal ABI group [54.5％ (36/66) vs 25.9％ (42/162),P ＜0.01].Conclusion The decreased ABI is an independent risk factor for cerebral infarction in patients with diabetes,which can early predict the risk of cerebral infarction.
