Exercise Training for Claudication

Stewart, Kerry J., Hiatt, William R., Regensteiner, Judith G., Hirsch, Alan T.·2002·New England Journal of Medicine

Abstract

Claudication, a manifestation of systemic atherosclerosis and accompanying peripheral vascular disease, is characterized by pain induced by walking in one or both legs; it primarily affects the calves. Claudication usually does not abate with continued walking and is relieved only by rest. Since the effects of approved medication are usually limited, exercise programs have been developed to treat this painful condition. This review discusses the rationale for an exercise program for the patient with claudication, with a focus on pathophysiology and the effect of training.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
