Figure 1 Changes in the ejection fraction (EF), left ventricular end-diastolic volume index (LVEDVI) and left ventricular end-systolic volume index (LVESVI) in the two randomized treatment groups from baseline to one month after. P(ANOVA) indicates the p value for time-group interaction. The white bars indicate the ANP group and the black bars the GTN group. *p < 0.001: difference between baseline and one-month values (within each group), p < 0.05, #p < 0.01.
