Figure 1 Strain in different territories (left anterior descending artery [LAD], left circumflex [LCX], and right coronary artery [RCA] territories) according to categories of diastolic blood pressure (A) and systolic blood pressure (B). Relationships between strain and blood pressures presented in this figure are unadjusted. Testing for trend (analysis of variance) indicates presence of significant relationship between diastolic blood pressure and strains (p values indicate significance for such a trend). No such relationship exists between systolic blood pressure and regional left ventricular (LV) function. Mean + standard error (SE) are presented.
