- Mean arterial pressure (MAP; mmHg), heart rate (HR bpm), maximum rate of isovolumic pressure development (+dP/dtmax, mmHg/s) and maximum rate of isovolumic pressure decay (-dP/dtmax, mmHg/s) of control, STZ-diabetic and STZ-diabetic rats treated with insulin (STZ+Insulin). Data are reported as mean ± SEM. * P < 0.05 as compared to control and STZ+Insulin group.
