  1. The number of positive cells per standard length of intimal surface was counted (3360 μm total length per patient); data are expressed separately for inflamed (>2 cells thick) and noninflamed tissue (1–2 cells thick). Data are expressed as mean ± SE. n, number of patients; *significant difference between inflamed and noninflamed; †significant difference between rheumatoid and nonrheumatoid.
