Figure 1

QSG could restore heart function and ameliorate myocardial fibrosis in HF rats after AMI. (a) Representative images of 2D echocardiogram in sham, model, QSG-L, QSG-H, and diltiazem groups. (b) Echocardiographic measurements of EF, FS, LVID; s, and LVID; d. QSG-L and QSG-H improved left ventricular EF and FS. (c) Masson staining indicated that QSG-L and QSG-H preserved cardiomyocyte structure and inhibited myocardial fibrosis. and vs. the sham group; , , and vs. the model group.
