PAB gradient measured by Doppler echocardiography. Measurements were performed at 2 and 6 weeks respectively in the sham (n = 5) and pulmonary artery banding (PAB, n = 8) groups. The statistical analyses were performed using the Mann-Whitney test. Values are presented as median and interquartile range. * = p < 0.05 compared to sham. ○ = individual animal. PSAX = parasternal short axis. PLAX = parasternal long axis. LV = left ventricle.
