    COX-Mediated platelet aggregation following treadmill exercise in patients with IC. Timepoint (A) baseline, (B) immediately post-exercise, (C) after 1h of rest. Data presented as box-plots-line in centre of box represents the median value; the box represents the inter-quartile range and the whiskers represent the range. Friedman test: p=0.026, p<0.005 Wilcoxon signed rank test at time B compared to baseline [0h].

    TRAP-Stimulated platelet aggregation following treadmill exercise in patients with IC. Time point (A) baseline, (B) immediately post-exercise, (C) after 1h of rest. Data presented as box-plots-line in centre of box represents the median value; the box represents the inter-quartile range and the whiskers represent the range. Friedman test: p=0.002, p<0.02 Wilcoxon signed rank test at time B compared to baseline [0h].
