  Abstract: Under the background of the aging population, arteriosclerosis has become an important threat to the health of middle-aged and elderly people, and ankle brachial index is a key index to evaluate the degree of arteriosclerosis. Because of its simple operation, reliable results and harmless to human body, it has gradually been widely concerned by the medical community. Related studies show that ankle brachial index is closely related to ischemic stroke, diabetes, cardiovascular disease and other diseases, which can provide valuable warning information for clinicians. This article will focus on the definition of ankle-brachial index, measurement methods and its important significance in clinical practice, in order to provide more reference for the health management of middle-aged and elderly population.

  Key words: Ankle Brachial Index; Middle-aged and elderly; Arteriosclerosis; Cardiovascular disease; Diabetes；Clinical significance; ;
