Table 1.

Transmural elastic deformation gradients ${\mathit{F}}_{\mathrm{W}1}^{\mathrm{e}}\text{ and }{\mathit{F}}_{\mathrm{W}8}^{\mathrm{e}}$ at weeks 1 and 8 from ED to ES. Means and standard deviations are displayed for n=11 animals. P-values are from two-tailed paired t-tests comparing ${\mathit{F}}_{\mathrm{W}1}^{\mathrm{e}}\text{ with }{\mathit{F}}_{\mathrm{W}8}^{\mathrm{e}}$.
