Figure 1From: Effects of atrial natriuretic peptide on inter-organ crosstalk among the kidney, lung, and heart in a rat model of renal ischemia-reperfusion injuryChanges in the HR, MAP, and plasma concentrations of creatinine and potassium during mechanical ventilation. Values are expressed as median. Vertical lines indicate the interquartile range (IQR). ANP, atrial natriuretic peptide; HR, heart rate; IRI, ischemia-reperfusion injury (unilateral); MAP, mean arterial pressure. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01 vs. the IRI + ANP group; †p < 0.05, ††p < 0.01 vs. the sham + ANP group; #p < 0.05, ##p < 0.01 vs. the sham + saline group.Back to article page
