  • Objective: We have previously shown that peripheral artery disease (PAD) is associated with marked impairment of endothelial function (EF). Given that poor EF is associated with functional status of PAD patients as well as increased morbidity and mortality in patients undergoing vascular procedures, determining factors associated with poor EF in a PAD cohort is important. We hypothesized that decreased kidney function is associated with impaired endothelial function (EF) in patients with PAD. Methods: This was a cross-sectional study of PAD patients presenting to a vascular surgery outpatient clinic at the San Francisco Veterans Affairs Medical Center including patients enrolled into the OMEGA-PAD I trial (NCT01310270) and the OMEGA-PAD Cohort. Brachial artery flow-mediated vasodilation (FMD) was performed to assess EF. Kidney function was characterized by eGFR using the abbreviated Modification of Diet in Renal Disease formula. Linear regression was performed to assess the relationship between EF and kidney function in claudicants. Results: 97 patients with intermittent claudication participated in this study. Mean age was 69 ± 8 years, 97% were male, and 77% were Caucasian. Comorbidities included hypertension (91%), dyslipidemia (87%), coronary artery disease (42%) and diabetes mellitus (38%). Mean ABI was 0.73 ± 0.14 and mean FMD was 7.0% ± 3.8, indicating impaired EF. Linear regression showed an association between kidney function and EF (by 10 ml/min/1.73m2, ?: 0.12; CI: 0.05, 0.20; P = .001). After multivariable regression adjusting for age, race, log TNF-?, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and diabetes, eGFR remained significantly associated with EF (P = .033). Conclusions: In patients with PAD, decreased kidney function is associated with endothelial dysfunction. Further longitudinal studies are needed to better understand the impact of kidney function on PAD progression and the role of endothelial dysfunction in this process.
