Abstract
(0.85 vs 0.92, p<0.05). Women versus men had inferior walking distance scores at presentation (13.6 vs 25.7, p<0.05), scores were equalized by 2 years (51.6 vs 60.8, p1⁄4NS),however 3 year follow up demonstrated less durable results for women versus men (37.3 vs 58.8, p<0.05). In addition, women hadworseWIQ scores for pain, walking speed, and stair climbing. However, the relative change in scores between men and women were comparable, with both groups seeing similar improvements from baseline for these parameters. Conclusions: Women continue to see clinical improvement following intervention, achieving comparable ABIs and walking distance to men at 2 years. These benefits are diminished at 3 year follow-up with women achieving lower absolute ABI and WIQ parameters compared to men, but improved overall compared to scores at presentation.
