(a) ICAM-1 (circle), VCAM-1 (square), and β1-integrin (triangle) mRNA levels in cEC obtained from venous blood of PAD patients at the different visit times. (b) % of reduction of mRNA levels of ICAM-1, VCAM-1, and β1-integrin in cEC at visit 4 with respect to visit 1. *𝑃<0.05, **𝑃<0.01, and ***𝑃<0.001 versus visit 1.
