Fig. 1 Effect of thyroidectomy on (A) LVDP, (B) LVdP/dtmax, (C) heart rate (HR), and (D) LVEDP 5 days after operation. Each column represents mean of eight measurements and bars represent standard error of mean. Asterisk indicates p < 0.05 when compared with sham-operated group.

Fig. 2 Effect of thyroidectomy (solid circles) on (A) systolic and (B) diastolic cardiac function when assessed 5 days after operation in isolated blood-perfused heart. Each point represents mean of eight measurements and bars represent standard error of mean. LV, Left ventricular. Asterisk indicates p < 0.05 when compared with sham-operated group (open circles).

Fig. 3 Effect of thyroidectomy (hatched columns) on myocardial Na+-K+-ATPase activity when assessed 5 days after operation (total tissue ATPase activity can be derived by addition of ouabain-insensitive and ouabain-sensitive ATPase activity). Each column represents mean of seven hearts and bars represent standard error of mean. MIE, Mean integrated extinction. Asterisk indicates p < 0.05 when compared with corresponding sham-operated group (open columns).

Fig. 4 Effect of thyroidectomy (solid circles) on postischemic recovery of (A) systolic and (B) diastolic cardiac function after 6 hours of hypothermic (4° C) ischemia and 40 minutes of reperfusion (37° C) in isolated blood-perfused heart. Each point represents mean of eight measurements and bars represent standard error of mean. LV, Left ventricular. Asterisk indicates p < 0.05 when compared with sham-operated group (open circles).
