Role of Training and Detraining on Inflammatory and Metabolic Profile in Infarcted Rats: Influences of Cardiovascular Autonomic Nervous System

Echocardiographic assessment of LV function. (a) Representative M-mode echocardiographic images. (b) LV internal diameter in systole (LVSYS). (c) LV internal diameter in diastole (LVDD). (d) Ejection fraction (EF). (e) Velocity of circumferential fiber shortening (VCF). Quantitative echocardiographic parameters were evaluated in control (C), sedentary infarcted (SI), trained infarcted (TI), and detrained infarcted (DI) rats. ^#𝑃<0.05 versus initial evaluation in the same group; ^∗𝑃<0.05 versus C; ^†𝑃<0.05 versus SI.
