Randomised, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Parallel-Group Study of Metformin for the Assessment of Changes in Functional Capacity, Endothelial Function, and Hemodynamics in Individuals With Peripheral Artery Disease-Related Intermittent Claudication
The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of metformin on functional capacity (pain-free and maximum walking times) in individuals with peripheral artery disease (PAD)-related intermittent claudication.
