Figure 1 Distribution of LVIDd
(Left) Histogram of the distribution of left ventricular internal dimensions in diastole (LVIDd) among control subjects and hypertensive subjects with a normal ejection fraction with (HFNEF) and without (HTN) heart failure. (Right) The gaussian distributions of LVIDd for the 3 cohorts (control, HTN, and HFNEF), demonstrating normal distributions with a shift in the HFNEF subjects toward larger volumes.
