Difference between average values of mechanical properties of the vascular beds in the Young and Patient groups
| Young | CBP patient | UBP patient | Difference young vs. averaged patient | |
| R (mm HG/ml/min) | 6.0 ± 4.0 | 4.35 ± 2.96 | 3.63 ± 1.37 | −35% |
| C (ml/mm HG) | 4.0 × 10−3 ± 2.0 × 10−3 | 5.7 × 10−3 ± 3.5 × 10−3 | 4.1 × 10−3 ± 1.8 × 10−3 | +20% |
| K (mm HG/ml/min) | 6.5 × 10−2 ± 4.0 × 10−2 | 11.9 × 10−2 ± 7.1 × 10−2a | 13.2 × 10−2 ± 8.8 × 10−2a | +95% |
| L (mm HG/ml/min2) | 1.4 × 10−5 ± 1.0 × 10−5 | 2.0 × 10−5 ± 3.0 × 10−5 | 2.0 × 10−5 ± 2.0 × 10−5 | +42% |

Values are mean ± SD. Averaged patient value is based on the combined CBP and UBP groups.
Significantly different from Young (P < 0.05; non-paired t tests, Bonferroni corrected).
