RHBF: Reactive hyperemic blood flow following arm elevation, SBP: Systolic blood pressure following arm elevation, DBP: Diastolic blood pressure following arm elevation, R-R: heart rate intervals at rest.

** Correlation is significant at the 0.01 level (2-tailed).

* Correlation is significant at the 0.05 level (2-tailed).
