Relationship between LV miR-29b expression and morphological and functional echocardiographic parameters in mice. Linear regression and Pearson’s correlation analyses showing the relationship between LV miR-29b expression and morpho-functional echocardiographic parameters, in sham (n = 8 males; n = 11 females) and TAC (n = 17 males; n = 13 females) mice. IVS, interventricular septum (A,B); PWT, posterior wall thickness (C,D); rPWT, relative posterior wall thickness (E,F); LVM, LV mass (G,H); LVEF, LV ejection fraction (I,J); MAPSE, mitral annular plane systolic excursion (K,L); E/e′, the ratio of peak early transmitral flow velocity (E) to peak early myocardial tissue 1 velocity (e′) (M,N), r, Pearson’s correlation coefficient. * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01, *** p < 0.001. $ Comparative analysis of female vs. male correlations with cocor.
