OBJECTIVE: To compare the prevalence of @entity3657 (PAD) and to assess whether age-associated progression in ankle-brachial index (ABI) differs between individuals with @entity1200 ( @entity1200 ) and the general population. METHODS: Pooled analysis with data from individuals aged 50 years and older with ABI measurements, obtained from population-based cross-sectional studies conducted in Catalonia (Spain). Information on three @entity1200 diagnoses (i.e., @entity29 , @entity2597 , and inflammatory polyarthropathies and spondylopathies, considered as one entity for purposes of analysis) was obtained from electronic medical records. To ascertain the statistical association between PAD and @entity1200 , logistic regression models were fitted and adjusted for age, sex, and cardiovascular risk factors. We tested the interaction between age and @entity1200 diagnosis for ABI values. RESULTS: We included 8799 individuals, 312 (3.6%) with @entity1200 . The age-standardized prevalence of PAD was higher in the @entity1200 group (12% vs. 6% in general population, p  =  0.001), and the model adjusted for age, sex, and cardiovascular risk factors also showed higher risk in individuals with @entity1200 [Odds Ratio (95% confidence interval)  =  1.65 (1.15-2.38); p  =  0.007]. The inflammatory polyarthropathies/spondylopathies diagnosis was significantly associated with PAD in the fully adjusted model [1.80 (1.18-2.75); p  =  0.006]. The @entity731 process was accelerated in individuals with @entity1200 , compared to the general population (p for interaction<0.001). CONCLUSION: In individuals with @entity1200 , age-standardized prevalence of PAD was significantly higher than in the general population and the @entity731 process was accelerated. However, only inflammatory polyarthropathies/spondylopathies was associated with significant risk of PAD.
