  1. All data are presented as either means (± standard deviation) or median (upper quartile/lower quartile). Statistical significance is shown by bolded p-values. All values given in percentage change to baseline vessel diameters or times in seconds
  2. AUC baseline area under the curve of the averaged 30 s prior to flicker start, AUC 20 s FL area under the curve of the averaged profile during 20 s flicker, AUC 20s Constriction area under the curve of 20 s duration 10 s following flicker cessation, AUC Last 30s area under the curve of the last 30 s of the averaged reation profile
  3. p value by analysis of variance or the Kruskal–Wallis test
  4. * p < 0.05 lower than the two other groups
