Values are expressed as mean ± SD. LVES, left ventricular end-systolic diameter; LVED, left ventricular end-diastolic diameter; LVPW, left ventricular posterior wall thickness; IVSD, interventricular septal thickness; LVFS, left ventricular fractional shortening; PTU, propylthiouracil; H2S, hydrogen sulfide. *p < 0.05
