Figure 5 Lateral Ea versus maximal instantaneous transmitral pressure gradient divided according to tau. The solid line and solid circles show the relation in one group where tau was <50 ms (y = 3.9 + 0.5x, [R2 = 0.46, p < 0.01]). The dashed line and open circles show the relation where tau was 50 ms (y = 4.8 0.02x, R2 = 0.0013, p = 0.5). Ea = early diastolic annular velocity.
