Echocardiographic data 2 months after reperfusion in rats with and without postconditioning. Compared with control rats, postconditioning significantly reduced the LVEDD (A) (P < 0.05), LVESV (B) (P < 0.05), and improved %FS (C) (P < 0.005). Small squares indicate the mean values, and bars show standard deviation. LVEDD, left ventricular diastolic dimension; LVESD, left ventricular systolic dimension; %FS, percentage of fractional shortening; Poscon, postconditioning.
