Figure 1 Percentage of women with low, medium, and high Duke Activity Status Index (DASI) by coronary flow velocity (CFR). DASI tertiles: 0 to 9.8 (n = 63), 9.9 to 19.9 (n = 63), 20 to 58.2 (n = 62). CFVRado tertiles: 0.58 to 2.22 (n = 63), 2.23 to 2.69 (n = 65), 2.7 to 4.48 (n = 62). Open bars = low DASI; solid bars = medium DASI; ruled bars = high DASI.
