Table 1. The differences in size of aortic lesions/aortic wall between the treated and untreated Apoe−/− mice (represented in mm).
Treatment | Aortic Diameter (mm) | P value† | |
Control | 1.17±0.06 | Angiotensin II vs Control | 0.0002 |
Angiotensin II | 2.24±0.20 | ||
α-tocopherol | 1.72±0.09 | Treatment vs Angiotensin II | 0.0007 |
β-carotene | 1.33±0.12 | 0.0002 | |
α-tocopherol+β-carotene | 1.473±.05 | 0.0003 |
P values of <0.05 were considered significant.
