Groups: C: control; GT: green tea; D: doxorubicin; DGT: doxorubicin+green tea. HR: heart rate in beats per minute; LVDD/c: left ventricular diastolic diameter corrected for body weight; LVSD/c: left ventricular systolic diameter corrected for body weight; PWT: posterior wall thickness; LA/c: left atrium diameter corrected for body weight; LA/AO: left atrium diameter corrected for aorta; : wave ratio (represents the peak velocity of transmitral flow during atrial contraction); : wave ratio (represents the peak velocity of early ventricular filling); IRTc: isovolumetric relaxation time; SF: shortening fraction. Values are expressed in . value: two-way ANOVA. : value of interaction; : value of green tea; : value of doxorubicin. When we observed the interaction between factors doxorubicin and green tea, we considered . HR: , , and . PWT/c: . LA/c: , . RWT: . Comparisons without interaction: a wave and : , and waves: . |
