Intermittent claudication, leg pain during a graded exercise test (GXT), and resting systolic pressures in the upper and lower extremities were recorded as indicators of peripheral arterial disease at visit 2 of the Lipid Research Clinics (LRC) Prevalence Study. Systolic pressures of the upper and lower extremities were measured in a subsample of participants. We compared lipid levels of persons with and without claudication and with or without GXT-induced leg pain. We also compared lipid levels between groups with high and low arm:ankle systolic blood pressure ratios. Twenty-one (1.0%) men, 10 (1.0%) female nonusers and six (1.0%) female users of gonadal hormones had intermittent claudication determined by standardized questionnaire. Men with claudication had lower high-density lipoprotein (HDL)-cholesterol (35.6 vs 46.4 mg/dl), and their mean triglyceride level and cigarette consumption were higher and regular exercise less frequent. Men with type IIb dyslipoproteinemia were more likely to report claudication. One hundred sixty-nine (4.0%) men, 101 (3.8%) female nonusers, and 47 (4.1%) female users of hormones stopped the GXT because of leg pain. Mean HDL-cholesterol levels were lower for those with GXT-induced leg pain in all three sex-hormone usage groups (42.0 vs 46.9, p less than .001; 53.9 vs 59.4, p less than .001; 65.3 vs 67.2, p = NS) and mean low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels were higher in those with leg pain on GXT in two of three groups (146.4 vs 146.2, p = NS; 155.7 vs 144.6, p less than .01; 144.4 vs 133.5, p less than .05).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D006951 Hyperlipoproteinemias Conditions with abnormally elevated levels of LIPOPROTEINS in the blood. They may be inherited, acquired, primary, or secondary. Hyperlipoproteinemias are classified according to the pattern of lipoproteins on electrophoresis or ultracentrifugation. Hyperlipoproteinemia
D007009 Hypolipoproteinemias Conditions with abnormally low levels of LIPOPROTEINS in the blood. This may involve any of the lipoprotein subclasses, including ALPHA-LIPOPROTEINS (high-density lipoproteins); BETA-LIPOPROTEINS (low-density lipoproteins); and PREBETA-LIPOPROTEINS (very-low-density lipoproteins). Hypolipoproteinemia,Hypoprebetalipoproteinemia
D007383 Intermittent Claudication A symptom complex characterized by pain and weakness in SKELETAL MUSCLE group associated with exercise, such as leg pain and weakness brought on by walking. Such muscle limpness disappears after a brief rest and is often relates to arterial STENOSIS; muscle ISCHEMIA; and accumulation of LACTATE. Claudication, Intermittent
