*Averaged segmental stress:rest maximal normalized upslopes.

Number of myocardial segments with reversible ischemia by qualitative analysis.

Summed segmental transmural stress:rest score (1 = normal, 2 = subendocardial defect, 3 = transmural defect).

§Summed segmental hypoenhancement stress:rest score (1 = normal, 2 = grey defect, 3 = black defect).

||Summed segmental infarct score divided by number of segments analyzed (1 = normal, 2 = subendocardial infarct, 3 = transmural infarct).

#p < 0.020 for control vs. case.
