1 A cohort study to find Incidence of Peripheral Arterial Disease in Thailand from EGAT study (I PAD EGAT) Uraporn Jaowattana, MD Fellowship in Cardiology, Ramathibodi Hospital
2 Background and Rationale Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD) is one of burden diseases Systemic atherosclerosis Causes morbidity and mortality worldwide PAD is considered to be an established CAD equivalent. By year 2020, PAD will surely be one of the globally burden diseases.
3 Poor Outcomes of PAD Chronic Limb Ischemia(CLI): is pain in lower extremity at rest or ulceration with or without tissue necrosis. Acute Limb Ischemia (ALI) : presents within hours with rest limb pain and a pulseless, painful foot. The vessel is occluded with a thrombus on top of mild to severe lesions.ali is a result from plaque rupture followed by in situ thrombosis or migration of a clot from proximal location.
4 PAD mortality : 10 year survival rates the San Diego Artery At Study Normal Surv vival Asymptomatic Symptomatic Severe symptomatic Time (years) Criqui MH et al. N Engl J Med 1992;326:
5 In USA, the incidence of symptomatic Peripheral Vascular Disease(PVD) increases with age from about 0.3% per year for men aged years to about 1% per year for men aged over 75 years.
6 In Thailand, the study data on PAD is still scant, even we had been enrolled in the REACH registry trial.
7 REACH Study( n= 68,236) North America: 27, Canada: 1,976 USA: 25,770 Latin America: 1,931 Brazil: 441 Chile: 253 Mexico: 899 Interlatina : 338 Europe: 23,542 Austria: 1,588 Lithuania: 99 Belgium: 383 The Netherlands: 324 Bulgaria: 996 Portugal: 218 Denmark: 422 Romania: 2,009 Finland: 311 Russia: 999 France: 4,592 Spain: 2,515 Germany: 5,521 Switzerland: 695 Greece: 699 Ukraine: 596 Hungary: 957 United Kingdom: 618 Middle East: 846 Israel: 379 Kingdom of Saudi Arabia: 198 Lebanon: 120 United Arab Emirates: 149 Asia China: 708 Hong Kong:175 Indonesia: 499 Japan: 5,048 Malaysia: 525 Phillippines: 1,039 Singapore: 880 South Korea: 505 Taiwan: 1,057 Thailand: 515 Australia: 2,872
8 PAD burden internationally REACH STUDY Reduction of Atherothrombosis for Continued Health (REACH) Registry 68,236 patients with either known atherosclerotic arterial disease (n= 55,814) or at least had 3 risk factors for atherothrombosis (n=12,422) from 5, practices in 44 countries ti in December 2003 June2004. AmHeart J. 2006;151: 786.e1 786.e10.
9 PAD Prevalence 18.3% in UK 19.1% in Netherlands 18% in Germany and Sweden, ranging gfrom % in US from different studies 19.8% in China 11.7% in Saudi Arabic 10.5% in Spain 29.3% in South Africa 3.2% South India 5.2% in Thailand Review: Ethnicity and peripheral artery disease,q J Med 2009; 102:3 16 Sritara, P. International Epidemiology Journal, 2003.
10 REACH Study Demonstrated that PAD patients had high prevalence of underlying vascular disease, multiple atherothrombotic risk factors. Found that there was underutilization in treating cardiovascular risk
11 PAD prevalence in Thailand 5.2% * * Sritara, P. International Epidemiology Journal, 2003.
12 EGAT 2002 In Thailand, from EGAT employee Overall prevalence of PAD was 5.2%,with finding of 4% in male and 9% in female. Hypertension, women, current smoking, current alcohol drinking and overweight have been found to be significant predictors of PAD * Sritara, P. International Epidemiology Journal, 2003.
13 Incidence of PAD from EGAT populations

55 Relationship between changes of ABI and PAD Mean different Changes of ABI for ten years (n=1,387) %CI= to The changes of ABI were divided in to 3 equal groups at Percentiles = and Percentiles = 0.01 Group 1 ABI increased from baseline more than Group 2 ABI increased from baseline equal or less than 0.01 but not decreased from baseline more than Group 3 ABI decreased from baseline equal or more than 0.08.
56 Relationship between changes of ABI and PAD Pearson chi square used for analysis relationship between PAD and changes of ABI. The previous ABI changes group 1 and group 2 were integrated into the same group. Group 1 =ABI decreased from baseline less than 0.08 Group 2= ABI decreased from baseline equal or more than 0.08 ABI 2012 Decreased < 0.08 (N= 857) Decreased > = 0.08 (N=481) 2012 ABI > = 0.9 Considered as no PAD (N=1,349) Count ABI < 0.9 considered as PAD (N=38) Row Column Table Column Table Count Row N % N% N% N% N% N% % % 65.68% 63.88% % 2.63% 0.07% 34.32% 32% 33.38% 38% % 97.37% 2.67% Pearson chi square analysis shown significant difference between PAD and ABI changes (p value <0.001).
57 Relationship between changes of ABI and Risk factors Relationship between the ABI changes groups and 5 significant risks of PAD from multivariate analysis were also analyzed by Pearson chi square. The results shown significant relation between HDL Cholesterol level and the ABI changes groups (p value = 0.024) and between fasting blood sugar level and/or HbA1C > 6.5% and the ABI changes groups (p value = 0.027).

58 Relationship between Cardio ankle vascular index (CAVI) and PAD Cardio-ankle vascular index (CAVI) mean between patients with PAD and without PAD was compared by t-test. There was no significant difference of CAVI between the patients who had PAD diagnosed by ABI.

59 Conclusion Incidence of PAD diagnosed by abnormal ABI <0.9, in the past 10 years from EGAT population was 2.74%.
60 Univariate analysis Significant RFs for year 10 th PAD were dyslipidemia,male with more 55 or female more 65 years, CKD, FBS 126 mg/dl, HbA1C > 6.5%,Triglyceride 200 mg/d,hdl <40 mg/dl,stroke history
61 Multivariate analysis The significant predictors of year 10 th PAD were 1. Chronic kidney disease 2. FBS >=126 mg/dl and/or HbA1C > 6.5% 3. Dyslipidemia 4. HDL cholesterol (<40 mg/dl) 5. Stroke /TIA history Age was also important.
62 Delta change of ABI When the change value decreases more than 0.08, it relates to the development of PAD in thenext10 years. Risk factors: FBS >= 126mg/dl, HDL<40 mg/dl
63 Limitations of the study There is no ethinicity difference. This represents only the middle class populations for Thailand Limited i number of patients who have been followed up in both times.
