(B) Percentage of VF time driven by RAs and (C) maximum duration for a single RA in the PF group is higher in comparison to sham surgery, CF and DiF groups. Data from sham surgery (n = 5), CF (n = 11), DiF (n = 11), and PF (n = 13) hearts. Statistical analysis with ANOVA, post hoc Bonferroni multiple comparisons test, *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001.
