Figure 4 EDVI, SVI, and CI by Gender and Race in the Cohorts Studied

Calculated end-diastolic volume index (EDVI), stroke volume index (SVI), and cardiac index (CI) in healthy control subjects and hypertensive subjects with a normal ejection fraction with (HFNEF) and without (HTN) heart failure by gender and race (European [Whites] and African Americans). In all groups, average calculated left ventricular volumes and cardiac output were larger in HFNEF subjects than in control and HTN subjects.
