Changes in FMD across the study compared with the control group. The initial FMD was significantly lower in the HVEI group (n = 25) than in the control group (n = 25; 2.1% ± 1.2% versus 13.6% ± 3.4%, P < 0.01). At the six week follow-up, the FMD was improved in the HVEI group compared with the initial FMD (2.1% ± 1.2% versus 5.1% ± 2.1%, P < 0.01) but it was still lower than the FMD of the control group (5.1% ± 2.1% versus 13.6% ± 3.4%, P < 0.01). *P < 0.01 versus baseline and †P < 0.01 versus control group. FMD, flow-mediated dilation; HVEI, high-voltage electrical injury.
