Figure 8. The dependence of λ alternans on λ.

Typical plots of the magnitude of λ′ alternans, magλ(alt) against λ′0 in WT (open symbols; black lines) and Scn5a+/− (filled symbols; grey lines), RV epicardium (A), and RV endocardium (B), before (circles; continuous line) and following addition of either flecainide (squares; dashed lines) or quinidine (triangles; dotted lines). Data represent the Mdn value of λ′0crit(alt) as all curves progress together with common negative gradients.
