* P < 0.05 vs. vehicle treated animals; † p < 0.05 vs. sham, †† p < 0.01 vs. sham, ††† p < 0.001 vs. sham. Heart rate (bpm—beats per minute). EF—ejection fraction; GLS—global longitudinal strain; FS—fractional shortening; SV—stroke volume; CO—cardiac output; LVIDd—end-diastolic left ventricular internal diameter; LVIDs—end-systolic left ventricular internal diameter; E/A ratio—ratio of early to late mitral inflow diastolic velocities. IVRT—isovolumic relaxation time; IVCT—isovolumic contraction time (n = 6–8), mean ± SEM.
