Data are means ± SD unless otherwise indicated. P values indicate results of two-way ANOVA for repeated measurements for the effect of time (within-subject factor) after consumption of the MUFA-rich meal and the SAFA-rich meal.

Results of two-way ANOVA for the effect of the meal (between-subject factor).

Result of two-way ANOVA for repeated measurements for the time-by-meal interaction. Baseline values before occlusion of the forearm artery, and maximum values measured within 15 s after occlusion.
