Figure 5From: Relation between cardiac dimensions and peak oxygen uptakeComparison of cardiac dimensions between males and females of the same sport: A) total heart volume normalized for body surface area (THV/BSA), B) left ventricular mass normalized for total heart volume (LVM/THV). Error bars denotes standard error of the mean. All male subject groups had a significantly higher THV/BSA and LVM/THV when compared to females, except for THV/BSA in triathletes. Abbreviations: C = control subjects, H = handball players, LVM = left ventricular mass, S = soccer players, T = triathletes, THV = total heart volumeBack to article page
