Differences in carotid artery distensibility coefficient (×10−5Pa−1) by parity compared to nulliparas. Regression coefficients and 95% confidence intervals adjusted for systolic and diastolic blood pressure, height, weight, pulse rate, age and race/ethnicity, total cholesterol categories, HDL-cholesterol categories, current smoking, diabetes, BP medication use. Overall significance of the association of distensibility coefficient with parity, p = 0.002) Asterisks (*) mark significant differences from the nulliparous group (p<0.05). In pairwise comparisons, parity 2 differs from parity levels 1, 4 and 5+ (p<0.05), all other pairwise differences do not reach statistical significance.
