Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Microvascular Function

    Change from baseline at 4 weeks

  • Conduit Artery Endothelial Dependent Dilation

    Change from baseline at 4 weeks

  • Arterial Stiffness

    Change from baseline at 4 weeks

  • Forward pulse wave amplitude

    Change from baseline at 4 weeks
