REST, MID- and POST-exercise proportions EPCs and CECs in youth with JIA (n = 7) and healthy controls (n = 5). A significant interaction was seen for EPCs as a proportion of PBMCs during MICE (a), whereby healthy controls demonstrated an increase in EPCs while EPCs in JIA remained unchanged. Conversely, HIIE (b) did not alter EPCs in healthy controls or JIA. Similarly, neither MICE (c) nor HIIE (d) had any effect on CECs in JIA and healthy controls. * significant difference from REST, p = 0.05; a significant difference between JIA and healthy controls, p = 0.05; b significant difference between JIA and healthy controls, p <0.01
