Summary
This study tested whether ramipril, a common blood pressure medicine, can improve walking distance in people with intermittent claudication—leg pain caused by narrowed arteries. Researchers planned to enroll 78 adults with stable leg pain, giving half ramipril and half a placebo for several months. They measured walking distance on a treadmill and checked artery function, quality of life, and cost-effectiveness.
