PIZ remodeling over 90 days assessed by LGE-CMR imaging. (A) The PIZ mass decreased consecutively until 90 days post-MI. The most pronounced drop was observed from day 3 to day 10. PIZ- mass decreased gradually until day 60, and only showed a minimal changes between day 60 and 90(* p < 0.01 versus day 3 post MI; ^† p < 0.05 versus day 10 post MI; repeated measures of ANOVA ^‡ p < 0.001).
