Figure 4From: Effects of dopexamine on the intestinal microvascular blood flow and leucocyte activation in a sepsis model in ratsTumour necrosis factor-α levels. Shown are tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-α levels; measurements were taken one, two and four hours after induction of endotoxaemia. CON, control group; DPX, DPX group (endotoxin plus dopexamine); LPS, LPS group (endotoxin infusion only). *P < 0.05 versus baseline; †P < 0.05 versus CON; ‡P < 0.05 versus DPX.Back to article page
