Right ventricular maximal rate of pressure increase (RV d P/ d t max ; a) and the rate of pressure change at a fixed right ventricular pressure (RV d P/ d t/P; b) in the control group and in rats treated with MCT (rats with right heart failure) or with MCT + C. dactylon hydroalcoholic extract ( C. dac ). Values are mean ± S.D (n = 10). #p < 0.001 from respective control value; *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, and ***p < 0.001 as compared with MCT treated group using one way ANOVA with Student-Newman-Keuls post hoc test.
