Figure 3. The effect of elevated LDL cholesterol in FIV of human resistance arteries.

Figure 3.

A. (Left) FIV in human subjects with lower than 100 mg/dl LDL cholesterol (n=11) and higher than 100 mg/dl LDL cholesterol (n=9, *p<0.05) (Right) FIV at Δ100 cmH2O. (*p<0.05) B. Correlation of LDL cholesterol and FIV at the pressure gradient of Δ100 cmH2O (n=16, *p<0.05). C. (Left) Correlation of total cholesterol and FIV at the pressure gradient of Δ100 cmH2O (n=16). (Right) Correlation of HDL cholesterol and FIV at the pressure gradient of Δ100 cmH2O (n=16). D. (Left) Correlation of BMI and FIV at the pressure gradient of Δ100 cmH2O (n=16, *p<0.05) (Right) Correlation of LDL cholesterol and BMI (n=16, *p<0.05). E. (Left) Correlation of age and FIV at the pressure gradient of Δ100 cmH2O (n=16, *p<0.05). (Right) Correlation of LDL cholesterol and age (n=16). (Correlation Coefficient (r)) F. Multiple linear regression models using enter method of factors of interest (LDL, BMI, and age) to predict FIV at the pressure gradient of Δ100 cmH2O in healthy adults (n=20). B=Unstandardized coefficients; BMI=body mass index; LDL=low-density lipoprotein; SE=standard error (*p <0.05).
