  1. No significant differences were observed in baseline cardiac function between the groups. Results are expressed as SEM, n = 5-7. CF- Coronary flow, HR- Heart rate, LVDevP- Left ventricular developed pressure, RPP- Rate pressure product, dp/dt (+) - maximum of LVDevP derivative, dp/dt (-) - minimum of LVDevP derivative, EDLVP- End diastolic left ventricular pressure, HW- Heart weight, BW- Body weight.
