Brachial artery flow-mediated dilation
| Controls | HFpEF | P-value | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Baseline brachial artery diameter, mm | 4.43 ± 0.14 | 4.61 ± 0.18 | 0.44 |
| Peak brachial artery diameter, mm | 4.65 ± 0.15 | 4.74 ± 0.19 | 0.71 |
| Time to peak dilation, s | 61 ± 5 | 78 ± 6 * | 0.03 |
| Cumulative shear rate at time of peak brachial artery dilation, s−1 | 69,018 ± 9,508 | 42,070 ± 4,018 * | 0.01 |
HFpEF, heart failure with preserved ejection fraction. Data are mean ± SEM.
Significantly different from Controls.
