Correction: Toe brachial index and not ankle brachial index is appropriate in initial evaluation of peripheral arterial disease in type 2 diabetes
Diabetology & Metabolic Syndrome volume 16, Article number: 72 (2024)
Correction: Diabetology & Metabolic Syndrome (2024)16: 52
Following publication of the original article [1], the authors would like to correct the number 0.9 in the conclusion under the main heading of abstract.
The sentence currently reads:
ABI < 0.9 detects PAD reliably, but presence of PAD in patients with ABI > 9.0 including the normal of ABI (0.9–1.3) can be confirmed with TBI, which correlated strongly with CTA. TBI is also non-inferior for PAD detection, when ABI < 0.9. TBI and not ABI can be utilized for assessment of PAD in subjects with T2D.
