Figure 2 Chordal shortening in the ischemic/reperfused left ventricular (LV) region (upper panel) and Vp (bottom panel) at baseline; at the end of the adenosine infusion; at the end of the first, second, and third balloon inflations (Infl-1, Infl-2, and Infl-3); immediately before the second and third inflations (Pre-Infl-2 and Pre-Infl-3); and 5 min after the third inflation (5' post-Infl-3) in control and adenosine-treated patients. Pairwise comparisons were performed between groups during each inflation and among inflations within each group. Values are means ± SEM.
