May enhance microvascular function via endurance training or stimulation; leaves open therapeutic translation pending controlled trials.
Does endurance training or electrical stimulation improve microvascular filtration capacity in human limbs?
Endurance training and electrical stimulation, but not strength training or dynamic plantarflexion, increase microvascular filtration capacity in human limbs.
Brown et al. (2001) studied this question.
