TR jet velocity is negatively associated with FMD. The inverse relationship between FMD and TR jet velocity for all 3 groups studied: nontransfused, pretransfusion, and posttransfusion HbSS patients. At lower (worse) FMD values, the TR jet velocity is higher, suggesting that a component of elevated TR jet velocity is likely endothelial dysfunction.
