Figure 2. LV End-systolic pressure-volume relationship in ACF and the effects of allopurinol.

Figure 2

Representative examples of LV pressure-volume loops generated by a transient inferior vena cava occlusion in Sham (upper left), ACF (upper right), Sham+allopurinol (Allop. lower left), and ACF+allopurinol (lower right). The slope of the LV end-systolic pressure volume relationship is decreased in ACF compared to Sham and significantly improved in ACF+allopurinol (see Table 2, LV ESPVR).
