Description
Stem cells were used as the treatment for sheep
that had suffered a heart attack.
Usage
1
data("stem.cells")
Format
A data frame with 18 observations on the following 3 variables.
trmtFactor indicating the treatment group.
beforeHeart pumping function, pre-experiment.
afterHeart pumping function, post-experiment.
Details
The animals used were sheep, and the embryonic stem cells
were from mice. The control had no treatments. The ESC group
had stem cells transplanted to their hearts.
Source
The data were estimated from a plot in Menard C, et al. 2005.

cells to infarcted sheep myocardium: a preclinical study.
