Fig. 1From: Acute hyperglycemia suppresses left ventricular diastolic function and inhibits autophagic flux in mice under prohypertrophic stimulationDiastolic dysfunction appears in the early phase of pressure overload. After 30 min of transverse aortic constriction (TAC) in C57 mice, invasive hemodynamics were evaluated. a Left ventricular systolic pressure (LVSP). b Left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP). c Heart rate. d Maximum rate of change in left ventricular pressure (dp/dt max). e Minimum rate of change in left ventricular pressure (dp/dt min). f Exponential time constant of relaxation (τ). g dp/dt max corrected with LVSP. h dp/dt min corrected with LVSP. *P < 0.05 versus the sham group, n = 6 and 9 in the sham and TAC groups, respectivelyBack to article page
