Figure 2

T2D mice exhibit preserved ejection fraction and reduced global longitudinal strain. (A) Exemplar M-mode and B-mode traces from the left ventricular short- and long-axis imaging planes. Red dashed line indicates positioning of M-mode line scan. (B) Ejection fraction. (C) Global radial strain, analyzed in the short axis (SAX) imaging plane. (D) Global radial strain, analyzed in the long axis (LAX) imaging plane. (E) Global circumferential strain, analyzed in the short-axis imaging plane. (F) Global longitudinal strain, analyzed in the long-axis imaging plane. Data are presented as mean ± SEM. n = 7–8/group. Analyzed by Students unpaired t-test, *p < 0.05.
