1. “Exercise for intermittent claudication: does the type of exercise make a difference?”Take-home pointsThere is reliable (high-certainty) Cochrane evidence that in people with intermittent claudication, supervised exercise programmes increase how far people can walk, both without pain and in total.Other types of supervised exercise may have a similar benefit, but we need more reliable research to confirm whether that is the case.Supervised exercise programmes probably work better than home-based exercise programmes or when people are just advised to increase how much they walk.
