Effect of Aqueous Extract from Descurainia sophia (L.) Webb ex Prantl on Ventricular Remodeling in Chronic Heart Failure Rats

Figure 3

Hemodynamic assessments showed rats treated with DS had lower LVEDP and higher LVSP and ±dp/dtmax compared to untreated group. This result showed that DS could improve myocardial contractility and relaxation in chronic heart failure rats induced by suprarenal abdominal aortic coarctation surgery. Values were mean ± SD. P <0.05 versus HF group.
