Figure 2 (A, B) The effects of HAE on echocardiographic parameters (LVEDD and LVESD) in doxorubicin-evoked CHF in rats. Results are expressed as the means±SD (n=8). # P<0.01 versus the control group; * P<0.05 and ** P<0.01 versus the CHF group. CHF – chronic heart failure; HAE, alcohol extract of hawthorn (Crataegus pinnatifida) fruit; LVEDD – left ventricular end-diastolic diameter; LVESD – left ventricular end-systolic diameter.
