stem.cell

Does treatment using embryonic stem cells (ESCs) help improve heart function following a heart attack? Each sheep in the study was randomly assigned to the ESC or control group, and the change in their hearts' pumping capacity was measured in the study. A positive value corresponds to increased pumping capacity, which generally suggests a stronger recovery.

Supplemental functions and data for 'OpenIntro' resources, which includes open-source textbooks and resources for introductory statistics at <http://www.openintro.org>. The package contains data sets used in our open-source textbooks along with custom plotting functions for reproducing book figures. Note that many functions and examples include color transparency; some plotting elements may not show up properly (or at all) when run in some versions of Windows operating system.
