What did studies of Abdominal aortic aneurysm repair find?

2

Studies of Abdominal aortic aneurysm repair measured 2 outcomes; the most studied are gait speed (1 study) and cognitive function (1).

Gait speed

no changein humans1

1 study
  1. Abdominal aortic aneurysm repair has no effect on gait speed in humans (β = 0.10 per month, p = .19).

    “Neither type of intervention nor frailty status were statistically significantly associated with changes in gait speed (β = 0.10 per month, p = .19; β = 0.07 per month, p = .29, respectively)”
