FS, fractionnal shortening; EF, ejection fraction; IVSd, interventricular septal thickness at end-diastole; IVSs, interventricular septal thickness at end-systole; LVIDd, left ventricular internal dimension at end-diastole; LVIDs, left ventricular internal dimension at end-systole; LVPWd, left ventricular posterior wall thickness at end-diastole; LVPWs, left ventricular posterior wall thickness at end-systole. One-way ANOVA followed by Bonferroni test were used. All the values are mean ± SD.
