title: [Relation of social support, stress level and intermittent claudication].
abstract: The possible action, as risk factor of peripheral arteriosclerosis, of the emotional stress; the effect of the social support to deaden this stress, and some aspects of the personality as fundamental regulator of the individual behaviour, are analyzed. 23 atherosclerotic patients, II degree, were valued and compared with a control group of the same age and sex.
