Subject characteristics of participants and effects of flow- and glyceryl trinitrate-mediated dilation on hemodynamic variables
| Baseline | FMD | P Value | Baseline | GTN | P Value | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Systolic blood pressure, mmHg | 117±10 | 117±9 | NS | 117±9 | 117±10 | NS |
| Diastolic blood pressure, mmHg | 67±8 | 68±8 | NS | 68±8 | 64±9 | <0.001 |
| Heart rate, beats/min | 52±10 | 51±9 | NS | 51±9 | 54±9 | <0.001 |
Values are means (SD) of subject characteristics of the participants (n = 20) and effect of flow (FMD)- and glyceryl trinitrate (GTN)-mediated dilation on hemodynamic variables. NS, no significant difference.
