Figure 3 Correlation between left ventricular (LV) end-diastolic (A) and LV end-systolic (B) volumes under stress and infarct size, expressed as percent of LV area. Both parameters, LV end-diastolic and LV end-systolic volumes, for any infarct size were significantly smaller in treated animals (closed circles) than in control animals (open circles). Statistical analysis by analysis of covariance.
