Figure 2 Normalized left ventricular end systolic volume (LVESV) in control group (squares), annuloplasty group (circles), and ventricular wrap group (triangles). The LVESV increased significantly in the control and annuloplasty groups at eight weeks but not in the wrap group. By analysis of variance, considering all experimental time points, the wrap group was significantly different from both the annuloplasty and the control groups. The annuloplasty group was not significantly different from the controls.
