Figure 3 a, Relation between the change (
) in FMD and the change in LDL VEC at follow-up in the cohort. As the
LDL vitamin E increases, so does the magnitude of
FMD (r = 0.42, p < 0.05). b, Relation between
FMD and the change in lag time to oxidation of LDL at follow-up. Reduced oxidative susceptibility after vitamin E supplementation is associated with improved FMD (r = 0.64, p < 0.0001).
