Figure 5. Predicting the relative influence of PAD, exercise, and/or percutaneous intervention on perfusion.

Figure 5

Whole muscle network simulations were adapted to reflect PAD conditions (44% rarefaction with 0.6 normalized input pressure). Exercise (EX) was simulated by reducing the degree of rarefaction from 44% to 22%. Percutaneous interventions (PI) were simulated by an increase of normalized input pressure from 0.6 to 0.9. Data are mean ± standard deviation.
