Left ventricular (LV) performance analyses in MI-R injury. (A) LV dp/dt recorded from liver-intact and hepatectomized parabiotic mice with cardiac sham operation and MI-R injury at 5 days. (B) Graphic representations of LV dp/dt and l-dp/dtl (absolute -dp/dt) from liver-intact and hepatectomized parabiotic mice with cardiac sham operation and MI-R injury. Solid blue and red circles: Means ± SDs from liver-intact and hepatectomized parabiotic mice with MI-R injury, respectively. Open blue and red circles: Raw data points (n = 6) from liver-intact and hepatectomized parabiotic mice with MI-R injury, respectively. The blue-colored p values are for comparisons between the liver-intact and hepatectomized parabiotic mice by ANOVA. The p value on each red-colored column is for post hoc comparison between the liver-intact and hepatectomized parabiotic mice at each time point. (C) LV echocardiograms from liver-intact and hepatectomized parabiotic mice with cardiac sham operation and MI-R injury at 5 days. (D) Graphic representations of LV fractional shortenings from liver-intact and hepatectomized parabiotic mice with cardiac sham operation and MI/R injury. Solid blue and red circles: Means ± SDs from liver-intact and hepatectomized parabiotic mice with MI-R injury, respectively. Open blue and red circles: Raw data points (n = 6) from liver-intact and hepatectomized parabiotic mice with MI-R injury, respectively. The blue-colored p value is for comparison between the liver-intact and hepatectomized parabiotic mice by ANOVA. The p value on each red-colored column is for comparison between the liver-intact and hepatectomized parabiotic mice at each time point.
