MAP indicates mean arterial pressure, LVSP, left ventricular systolic pressure, LVEDP, left ventricular end-diastolic pressure, +dp/dt, rate of contraction; -dp/dt rate of relaxation, LV, left ventricle, LR, right ventricle. Data are presented as mean ± SEM, analyzed by a student’s unpaired t-test.
(*) represents P<0.05 versus sham and (n) number of rats examined.
