Injection of CB-MNC/HA increases interventricular septum thickness after infarction. (A): The LVEF measured pre-MI, immediately after MI (post-MI), and 1 and 2 months after MI. (B, C): The systolic and diastolic interventricular septum thicknesses. The values are means ± SEM (n ≥ 6). ∗, p < .05; ∗∗, p < .01; ∗∗∗, p < .001 versus MI+NS; +, p < .05; ++, p < .01; +++, p < .001 versus MI+HA; §, p < .05; §§, p < .01; §§§, p < .001 versus MI+CB-MNC. Abbreviations: CB-MNC, cord blood mononuclear cell; HA, hyaluronan; IVS, interventricular septum; LVEF, left ventricle ejection fraction; MI, myocardial infarction; NS, normal saline.
