The Association of Flow-Mediated Dilatation and Blood Parameters in Primary Raynaud’s Phenomenon

Table 2

Relation between laboratory parameters and abnormal flow-mediated dilatation (FMD).

	FMD	p
MCP-1	R		0.308
	R^2		0.095
	p		0.044
	N		43
WBC	R		0.036
	R^2		0.001
	p		0.819
	N		43
MPV	R		0.171
	R^2		0.029
	p		0.272
	N		43
Fibrinogen	R		0.101
	R^2		0.010
	p		0.517
	N		43

FMD: flow-mediated dilatation; MCP-1: monocyte chemoattractant protein-1; WBC: white blood cell; MPV: mean platelet volume; p: correlation is significant at the 0.05 level (2-tailed). The bold numbers show the p values below 0.05.
