MAP indicates mean systemic arterial pressure; RAP mean right atrial pressure; PAP mean pulmonary arterial pressure; TPG transpulmonary gradient; PVR pulmonary vascular resistance; SVR systemic vascular resistance; C(a-v)O2 Indicates arterio-venous difference in oxygen content (i.e. oxygen extraction).

Indicates P<0.05 for comparison of HF+EOV and HF-EOV,

^†

indicates P<0.05 for EOV vs. controls,

^‡

indicates P<0.05 for comparison of HF-EOV and controls, and

^§

indicates P<0.05 for comparison of HF and controls.
