4.10 Clinical outcome As a result, in the patients' group, endothelial function improved as expressed by the highly significant increase in CFR during the RR session (p < 0.001) and after 60 days (p < 0.05) and a reduction (p < 0.05) of IMT in the carotid vessels after six months ( Fig. 7 ).
12 , 13 After 6 months, the significant improvement of the overall SCL90-R score (p < 0.001 in the intervention group and p < 0.05 in the intervention healthy control group) is to be referred to the notable improvement of the score in the subscales of “somatization”, “anxiety” and “hostility” with a trend towards significance for the parameters “depression” (p = 0.059) and “sleep” (p = 0.055).
