Endothelial Dysfunction in Cystic Fibrosis: Role of Oxidative Stress

Table 2

Parameters of the FMD test in patients with CF completing the AOC treatment (CF-AOC; ), placebo condition (CF-PLC; ), or healthy controls ().

Variable	CF-AOC		CF-PLC		Controls
	Pre	Post	Pre	Post
Baseline diameter (cm)
Peak diameter (cm)
FMD absolute change (cm)
Shear rate (s^-1, AUC)
FMD/shear (%/s^-1, AUC)					^†
Time to peak (s)					^†‡

Values are the . FMD = flow-mediated dilation. Significant pre- to posttreatment change versus CF-PLC (); ^†significant difference versus Pre in CF-AOC (); ^‡significant difference versus Pre in CF-PLC ().
