Blood pressure and heart rate in SHRSP of both sexes given SOY diet or CAN diet for 8 weeks.

Parameters	Male						Female
	SOY			CAN			SOY			CAN
Systolic BP§,†,¶	230	±	5b	267	±	7a,*	209	±	4c	207	±	4c
(mmHg)
Diastolic BP§,†,¶	168	±	7b	197	±	6a,*	152	±	4b	148	±	4b
(mmHg)
Heart rate¶	470	±	11b	501	±	7a,*	488	±	5ab	473	±	7b
(beats/min)

SOY, 10 w/w% soybean oil diet (control); CAN, 10 w/w% canola oil diet. BP, blood pressure.

Values are means ± SEMs of 10 animals.

^§ and ^†, Significantly different between sexes and between diets, respectively (p<0.05, two way ANOVA).

^¶, Interaction exists between the factors, sexes and diets (p<0.05, two way ANOVA).

Identical alphabetical letters (above SEMs) indicate the absence of significant differences between the groups (p>0.05, Tukey’s test).

*, Significantly different from the SOY group in each sex (p<0.05, unpaired t-test).
