A Systematic Review of Fetal Genes as Biomarkers of Cardiac Hypertrophy in Rodent Models of Diabetes
Figure 2
Effect of diabetes type and methods of diabetogenicity on indices of cardiac hypertrophy in experimental rodent models of diabetes.
The type of diabetes and the method of inducing diabetes significantly affect absolute heart weight but not the HW:BW index in rodent models of diabetes. * significant effect of diabetes type; # significant effect of diabetogenic from both other categories. Significance set at P<0.05. T1DM = type 1 diabetes mellitus; T2DM = type 2 diabetes mellitus; HW = heart weight; BW = body weight; TL = tibia length.
