Table 2 Electrophysiological findings of healthy, doxorubicine-treated and BMSC-treated rabbits in comparison to sham-operated animals. (Abbreviations: TAT: total activation time; ARI = activation-recovery interval; SD(ACT) : standard deviation of activation time; DISP: dispersion defined as standard deviation of activation-recovery interval). The differences among the groups were not significant.
