  1. Studies are sorted based on artery, effect and first author
  2. Abbreviations: NZW New Zealand White, SD Sprague Dawley, WS Wistar, LY Landrace Yorkshire, M muscle chamber, W wire myograph, P pressure myograph, nr not reported
  3. *Effect as reported by the original paper; arrows indicate the direction of the effective change in diameter
  4. **A value suffixed with a “%” symbol indicates the percentage of oxygen used to oxygenate the physiological salt solution, other values indicate the oxygen tension in mmHg
  5. ǂNot included in the meta-analysis because no data was shown or values could not be recalculated (#). For diameters, values are presented as range or average diameter
