Pizzato FB* and Marques JLB

Peripheral arterial disease incidence is getting higher in the last years. This is explained due to higher life expectancy of the population, smoking persistence and the high incidence of obese, hypertension e diabetes. In diabetic patients specifically, cardiovascular disease is one of the main cause of morbimortality and the peripheral arterial disease has a huge importance on it. And as known, one of the principal complications of diabetes is the peripheral neuropathy, which may be more aggressive due to peripheral arterial disease in diabetic patients. That is the background for this paper.
