Figure 5 Myocardial systolic function in rats with pressure overload hypertrophy (POH). The in vivo left ventricular end-systolic (LVES) stress–strain (systolic stiffness) relationship was similar in both POH groups and was not different from that of the control group. ESD = end-systolic diameter; other abbreviations as in Figure 1.
