Values are means ± SE; n = 10 for SD mice and n = 10 for HFD mice 28 days after TAC. LVESP, LV end-systolic pressure; LVEDP, LV end-diastolic pressure; SAPL, systolic arterial pressure measured in the left carotid artery; TSPG, transstenotic pressure gradient; dP/dtmax, maximum rate of developed LV pressure; dP/dtmin, minimum rate of developed LV pressure; dP/dtmax/IP, ratio of maximum rate of developed LV pressure to the instantaneous pressure at this time point; PAMP, preload adjusted maximum power; Ea, arterial elastance; τ, time constant of isovolumic relaxation.
