Amelioration of haemodynamic parameters by phloroglucinol treatment. Diabetic rats showed decreases (a) in heart rate (A), resting tension (B), developed tension (C), and dP/dt _max (D) compared to normal rats. Phloroglucinol treatment significantly improved (b, c) the haemodynamic parameters. Values are represented as means ± SEM (n = 6). Significance was assessed by one‐way ANOVA followed by Dunnet's multiple comparison test: a, vs normal control group; b and c, vs diabetic control group. NC, normal control; DC, diabetic control; Phloro(100), 100 mg/kg phloroglucinol; Phloro(200), 200 mg/kg phloroglucinol
