title: [Risk profile in peripheral arterial occlusive disease].
abstract: In numerous studies it has been established that risk profiles of coronary heart disease (CHD) and peripheral vascular disease (PVD) are different. There is no doubt about nicotine++ consumption as the most protective factory of PVD. In order of significance arterial hypertension, hyperlipoproteinemia, diabetes mellitus und reduced physical training are further risk factors. In contrast to CHD, the importance of LDL-cholesterin as arteriosclerotic factor is much lower in PVD while high level of triglyceride is an autonomous risk factor of PVD, as well as physical immobility. In the present review, the different penetrance of risk factors for individual vascular regions are described.
