  1. p values from general linear models, with three terms included in each model: Main Eff. – the main effect of the factor being considered, Inflam. – a binary variable, stating whether a patient had high levels of inflammation (ESR > 25 and CRP > 5), Int. – an interaction term between Main Eff. and Inflam., testing whether the relationship between the factor and outcome differs by the degree of inflammation. Bold p values are significant at p < 0.05
  2. ADMA asymmetric dimethylarginine, SDMA symmetric dimethylarginine, ACh acetylcholine, SNP sodium nitroprusside, FMD flow-mediated dilatation, GTN glyceryl-trinitrate mediated dilatation, cIMT intima media thickness, SEVR subendocardial viability ratio, AIx augmentation index, HR heart rate
