Femoral artery hemodynamics in healthy subjects and subjects with type 2 diabetes
| Healthy Subjects | T2D Subjects | P Value | n (Healthy/T2D) | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Baseline diameter, cm | 0.63 ± 0.02 | 0.65 ± 0.03 | 0.60 | 20/15 |
| Peak diameter, cm | 0.66 ± 0.02 | 0.66 ± 0.03 | 0.97 | |
| Time-to-peak diameter, s | 74.6 ± 7.7 | 97.2 ± 9.5 | 0.07 | |
| Hyperemic shear rate, s−1 AUC | 10,610 ± 1,030 | 9,215 ± 856 | 0.33 | |
| FMD, % | 4.91 ± 0.56 | 2.04 ± 0.31 | <0.001 |
Data are presented as means ± SEM. n, sample sizes. Significant P values are in bold. AUC, area under the curve; FMD, flow-mediated dilation; T2D, type 2 diabetes.
