Heart rate (HR) was specified based on reported values. Stressed blood volume (SBV), systemic resistance (Ras), aortic resistance (Rcs), muscle contractility (Tmax) were adjusted to match reported hemodynamic data. EDP: left ventricular end-diastolic pressure, maxP: left ventricular maximum pressure, %short: percent short-axis shortening in the anterior–posterior cavity diameter. HR and reported hemodynamics are from Sasayama et al. (1976). For each fitted parameter, the right-hand columns show the % change from the optimized value required to induce an error equal to 1 SD of the reported value (see text for more details)
