  1. Sham, sham-operated; MI, myocardial infarction; HMI, heart mass index, HMI = HM (heart mass)/BM (body mass); LVMI, left ventricular mass index, LVMI = LVM (left ventricular mass)/BM
  2. Data are shown as the mean ± SD (n = 10). *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, compared to Sham group; #P < 0.05, ##P < 0.01, compared to MI group
