Similar to the findings with the WIQ, treadmill training resulted in a 26% increase in estimated
activity level to a mean value of 195 -+ 51 MET
hr/wk (Fig. 2). For comparison, healthy older
subjects from a previous population study (the San Luis Valley Diabetes study) had a PAR score of
268 + 49 MET hr/wk, s No patient with PAD
achieved this expected mean value (Fig. 2).
