Summary values for luminal diameters for five arteriolar orders
| Arteriolar order (n = 8) | Baseline diameter (μm) | O2 response (μm) | SNP response (μm) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1A | 111.1 ± 11.4 | −16.4 ± 8.4 | 22.4 ± 20.7 |
| 2A | 85.5 ± 6.0 | −13.4 ± 4.9 | 22.0 ± 10.3 |
| 3A | 61.1 ± 4.8 | −7.0 ± 8.4 | 16.5 ± 7.1 |
| 4A | 45.7 ± 3.5 | −6.4 ± 5.7 | 13.8 ± 5.9 |
| 5A | 35.1 ± 6.2 | −2.4 ± 8.5 | 13.8 ± 5.6 |
Responses were calculated as changes from the baseline diameter (DResponse − DBaseline) and reported as mean ± SD.
