Relationship between %FMD and resting vessel diameter. FMD is increase above baseline following cuff release, and resting diameter is an average of values taken over 5 minutes. Data points represent values from room temperature as well as heated conditions for six subjects on day 1 and for four subjects on day 2 (20 total). R2 value of 0.57, with a negative slope demonstrates the inverse relationship between FMD and resting diameter
