Fig. 1From: Early progression of pulmonary hypertension in the monocrotaline model in males is associated with increased lung permeabilityHemodynamic changes in 14 days MCT model. Right ventricular (RV) systolic pressure found to be elevated significantly only in males treated with MCT. a Fulton index at this early stage of PH was unchanged between groups. b Contractility of the right heart (dP/dtmax) was significantly reduced in males, but not in females. c Relaxation parameter (dP/dtmin) did not reach statistical significance in males and was unaffected in females. d Mean ± SEM, N = 6, *p < 0.05 vs control, two-way ANOVABack to article page
