Induction of Ankrd1 in Dilated Cardiomyopathy Correlates with the Heart Failure Progression

Figure 2

Increased ANKRD1 expression marks left ventricular remodeling. (a) Linear correlation between ANKRD1 expression and radial stain. Regression line is represented within 95% confidence interval for the mean value. A negative correlation between ANKRD1 expression () and radial strain (RS; %) was found (, , ). (b) Linear correlation between ANKRD1 expression and E wave deceleration time. Regression line is represented within 95% confidence interval for the mean value. A negative correlation between ANKRD1 expression () and E wave deceleration time (ms) was detected (, , ).
