1 Severity of the cardiac impairment determines whether digitalis prolongs or reduces survival of rats with heart failure due to myocardial infarction  Alexandra A. dos Santos, Izo Helber, Ednei L.

2 Fig. 1 Kaplan–Meier curves comparing survival probability in female rats of Control and Digitoxin groups after myocardial infarction equal or larger than 37% (MI≥37%) and myocardial infarction smaller than 37% (MI<37%).

3 Fig. 2 Kaplan–Meier curves comparing survival probability after myocardial infarction in female rats according to Doppler echocardiogram predictors of mortality. Survival estimates in the≥37% infarction digitoxin and placebo groups: A) FAC: fractional area change; B) E\A ratio; C) LVDD: left ventricle diastolic diameter; D) LVSD: left ventricle systolic diameter; E) LVSA: left ventricle systolic area. *P<0.05 (log rank test).
