2 Fig. 1 Final result of PGE1 vs. placebo treatment showing percent of ulcers that healed completely, were reduced by 20% or more in surface area, remained unchanged or increased by 20% or more, developed during the course of treatment, and had inadequate follow-up. The differences between treated group and placebo were not significant. Journal of Vascular Surgery 1984 1, DOI: ( / (84) ) Copyright © 1984 Mosby, Inc. Terms and Conditions
