P-579 (mean ± sd) or median (IQR). Patients with CAD had significantly abnormal vWf levels and FMD but not NMD compared to controls (p Patients with CAD who were nondippers and with higher ambulatory PP had the highest vWf levels, whereas dippers with lower ambulatory PP had the lowest levels. vWf levels were closely associated with FMD, whilst ambulatory PP and circadian BP patterns had no relationship with FMD. Key Words: Endothelial Damage/Dysfunction, Pulse Pressure, Nondipping
