My comment:

systolic gradients (arm-finger, arm-ankle, arm-toe)

My references:

Summary The systolic blood pressure has been measured at the first finger, ankle and first toe, using the strain gauge technique, in 22 diabetic patients aged 40 to 59 years, with diabetes of 11 to 42 years duration, and in 14 non-diabetics in the same age group — all without clinical evidence of occlusive arterial disease in the legs and with palpable pulses in the feet. — The mean systolic gradients (arm-finger, arm-ankle, arm-toe) were equal in the diabetics and nondiabetics.
