结局指标
主要结局
coronary endothelial function as assessed as response to cold pressor test
时间窗: 2 hours
Primary endpoint will be the improvement in coronary endothelial function in response to cold pressor testing (i.e. % reduction in coronary artery constriction compared to baseline) 2h after ingestion of a cocoa flavanol rich-drink or placebo drink, respectively. In a subset of patients daily consumption of a flavanol-drink will be assessed and outcomes measured after 3-4 weeks.
