Ankle-Brachial Index Open Access Articles

A simple , non-invasive way to check for peripheral artery disease ( PAD) is the Ankle-brachial index test. The disease occurs when your limbs are reduced by narrowed arteries. When walking, PAD can cause leg pain, which raises the risk of heart attack which stroke. The ankle-brachial index test compares the measured blood pressure at your ankle with the measured blood pressure at your arm. A low ankle-brachial index number can indicate that the arteries in your legs are narrowed or blocked. A review article is an essay that sums up a topic's existing state of understanding. Instead of disclosing new data or research, a review article surveys and summarizes previously published studies. Review papers are often often called survey posts, or summary papers in news reporting. Open access journals comply with well-established peer review processes, and maintain high standards of publishing. The Open Access Journals' motto is to promote flawless, unbiased research information and data by keeping the international publishing standard as transparent as possible.
