Data were shown as the . was vs. the sham group, and # was vs. the MI group. And value was calculated by post hoc comparisons. LVDd: left ventricular (LV) dimension at end diastole; LVDs: left ventricular (LV) dimension at end systole; FS: fractional shortening; LVEF: left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction; WThd: wall thickness at end diastole; WThs: wall thickness at end systole.
