(a) Ankle PVRs of a 21-year-old man (166 cm tall) expressed with % mean arterial pressure (%MAP) and upstroke time (UT). His right ankle-brachial index (ABI) was 1.30 and left ABI was 1.28. (b) Ankle PVRs of a 21-year-old woman (155 cm tall) expressed with %MAP and UT. Her right ABI was 1.04 and left ABI was 0.95. (c) Ankle PVRs of a 65-year-old man (156 cm tall) with hypertension, dyslipidemia, and diabetes mellitus, but without significant arterial disease in the lower extremities expressed with %MAP and UT. His right ABI was 1.10 and left ABI was 1.08.
