Figure 3 Scatterplots illustrating the relation between changes in LVEF and changes in BRS (top panel) or SDNN (bottom panel) after beta-blockade. A significant relation between LVEF and both autonomic indexes is shown. BRS = baroreflex sensitivity; LVEF = left ventricular ejection fraction; SDNN = 24-h standard deviation of normal RR interval.
