Figure 1. (a) Salivary MHPG response to the Stroop mental stress task in black Africans. Participants with metabolic syndrome (N = 82) and without (N = 112) are designated with solid and broken lines, respectively. Values are adjusted for age and sex, error bars are standard error of the mean. The post-stress MHPG concentration was significantly different between the groups using the t-test (p < 0.05). (b) Salivary MHPG response to the Stroop mental stress task in caucasians. Participants with metabolic syndrome (N = 75) and without (N = 131) are designated with solid and broken lines, respectively. Values are adjusted for age and sex, error bars are standard error of the mean.
