Morphological and functional data evaluated by echocardiography. a LVIDd; b LVIDs; c LV ejection fraction; d LV fractional shortening; e LVPWd; f LVPWs. Values were presented as mean ± SEM (n = 5). ND, normal diet; HFD, high-fat diet; FAD, HFD supplemented with FA; LV, left ventricle; LVIDd, LV internal diameter at end diastole, and end systole (LVIDs); LVPWd, LV posterior wall thickness at diastole and systole (LVPWs). *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01. #p < 0.05; ## p < 0.01 versus ND
