Figure 2

Cardiac function decreases at 2 h post-ischemia/reperfusion (IR) injury, but does not decline up to 2 months of age. Echocardiography analysis of sham-operated and IR pigs measured prior to surgery (P30 baseline), 2 h following the start of ischemia (or sham equivalent), 1 week, 2 weeks, and 4 weeks following surgery. (A) Ejection fraction (%), (B) fractional shortening (%), (C) left ventricular (LV) end diastolic volume (mL), (D) LV end systolic volume (mL), (E) LV diastolic dimension (cm) and (F) LV systolic dimension (cm). Data are mean ± SD. Mixed effect ANOVA analysis with Bonferroni’s post-hoc test * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01 vs. same time point in sham, n = 8/group.
