Figure 6

Diastolic Function measured with Doppler Echocardiography. (A) Representative images of MV doppler echocardiograms show reduced E-waves and E/A ratio in diabetic BPH mice (y axis = velocity [mm/s], scale bar = 10 ms). (B) Peak E-wave, (C) Peak A-wave, (D) E/A ratio and (E) E/e’ ratio (a.u. = arbitrary units). (F) Isovolumic relaxation time (IVRT) and (G) Deceleration time (ms). *P < 0.05 as indicated. Bars represent as mean ± SEM with individual values plotted.
