  • Values are expressed as mean (SD).

  • 2-150 p < 0.05;

  • 2-160 p < 0.01 restrictive versus non-restrictive;

  • 2-151 p < 0.05,

  • 2-164 p < 0.01 non-restrictive versus control.

  • AD-RD, mitral A wave duration minus pulmonary venous flow reversal duration; D, diastolic pulmonary peak flow velocity; DT, mitral E deceleration time; E:A ratio, early to late peak filling velocity; EDVI, end diastolic volume indexed for body surface; EF, left ventricular ejection fraction; ESVI, end systolic volume indexed for body surface; IRT, isovolumetric relaxation time; R, pulmonary venous flow reversal velocity; S, systolic pulmonary venous flow velocity.
