About This Peripheral Artery Disease Study in Chicago

RESIST PAD is a randomized trial of 200 PAD patients to establish: 1) whether a 12-week exercise intervention significantly increases Δ nitrite at 12-week follow-up, compared to control; 2) whether exercise "responders" have greater Δ nitrite increases compared to "non-responders"; 3) among non-responders, whether supplementing exercise with nitrate-rich beetroot juice between weeks 13-24 increases Δ nitrite and improves 6-minute walk at 24-week follow-up.
