Effect of Nitroprusside on forearm vascular conductance in women using oral contraceptives. (Control, n = 10; Oral contraceptive, n = 13) Nitroprusside infusion resulted in a dose-dependent increase in vascular conductance. The rise in vascular conductance from baseline with Nitroprusside infusion was greater in women taking oral contraceptives when compared to controls (p = 0.032). Data are presented as Mean±SEM. ^*p < 0.05 vs. Control; ^Bp < 0.05 vs. 0.05 μg/100 g/min; ^Cp < 0.05 vs/ 1.0 μg/100 g/min.
