Plasma concentrations of the peptides midregional proadrenomedullin (MR-proADM), midregional proatrial natriuretic peptide (MR-proANP), and C-terminal endothelin-1 precursor fragment (CT-proET-1) are increased in various cardiovascular conditions. However, there is limited information about the association and comparative performance of these peptides in peripheral arterial disease (PAD).
