Figure 4

The end-diastolic pressure volume relationship (EDPVR) in male and female participants before and after maximal cardiopulmonary testing. The end-diastolic left ventricular (LV) pressure (LVEDP) was considered to equal the pulmonary wedge pressure and was estimated non-invasively by a previously described equation. LV end-diastolic stiffness illustrated by the EDPVR slope (solid lines) was similar for both sexes at baseline and was essentially unaltered following exercise.
