  1. Reported data were presented as mean values ± SEM. P value < 0.05 was considered significant. P value < 0.001 was considered highly significant. Independent two-tailed t test was used for comparison between the groups

LAD left atrial diameter, LVEDD left ventricular end-diastolic diameter, RVEDD right ventricular end-diastolic diameter, Septal e′ early diastolic velocity of septal mitral annulus motion, TAPSE tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion, RVSP right ventricular systolic pressure, Qp/Qs systemic/pulmonary blood flow
