Figure 1. Resting and maximal inducible left ventricular outflow tract pressure gradients in obese and non-obese patients without obstructive physiology at rest.

Figure 1

The figure shows that LV outflow tract pressure gradients generally increased in both obese (dashed lines) and non-obese (solid lines) HC patients under provocative maneuvers, but significantly higher induced LV pressure gradients were observed in those with obesity (p for comparison of maximal inducible LV outflow tract pressure gradients =0.045).
