目的了解外周动脉粥样硬化性血管疾病(PAVD)门诊患者左心室收缩功能不全(LVSD)的发生率。方法和结果在Vastmanland的外周动脉疾病研究中，连续的437例患者，超声诊断为颈内动脉轻度至重度狭窄或跛行症状合并踝臂指数0.90或超声显示闭塞。以人群为基础的对照受试者与患者匹配(n=395)。LVSD定义为超声心动图测定的左心室射血分数(LVEF)
AimsWe aimed to determine the prevalence of left ventricular systolic dysfunction (LVSD) in outpatients with peripheral atherosclerotic vascular disease (PAVD). Further, the associations of stenotic internal carotid artery disease (SICAD) and lower extremity artery disease (LEAD) with LVSD were evaluated.Methods and resultsIn the Peripheral Artery Disease in Vastmanland study, consecutive outpatients with ultrasonographically identified mild to severe stenosis in the internal carotid artery or symptoms of claudication combined with either ankle brachial index of 0.90 or ultrasonographic occlusive findings were included (n=437). Population-based control subjects were matched to the patients (n=395). LVSD was defined as echocardiographically determined left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF)
