Figure 6. Alterations in Femoral Artery Blood Flow.

Figure 6

This figure demonstrates the femoral artery blood flow in RLS (blue) and control (orange) subjects. Error bars are standard error of the mean. n=18 (9 RLS; 9 age- and gender-matched controls). Baseline femoral artery blood flow is increased 22.5% in RLS subjects. RLS subjects demonstrate only a 1.7% increase in blood flow following exposure to hypoxia, whereas control subjects demonstrate a 7.2% increase in blood flow following hypoxia. (unpublished data)
