Figure 5

Hemodynamic assessment was done to the left ventricle through right carotid artery to evaluate the role of QSYQ pretreatment in preventing heart from I/R injury.

Notes: Quantitative assessment of hemodynamic on cardiac function based on heart rate (HR) (A), LVDP (B), LVSP (C), left ventricular end diastolic pressure (LVEDP) (D), left ventricular maximum upstroke velocity (+dp/dtmax) (E), and left ventricular maximum descent velocity (−dp/dtmax) (F). Data are expressed as mean ± SD from six animals. **P<0.01 compared with the Sham group; #P<0.05, ##P<0.01 compared with the I/R group.

Abbreviations: QSYQ, QiShenYiQi Pill®; I/R, ischemia/reperfusion; HR, heart rate; LVDP, left ventricular development pressure; LVSP, left ventricular systolic pressure; LVEDP, left ventricular end diastolic pressure; SD, standard deviation.
