Figure 2From: Compartmentalization of lipid peroxidation in sepsis by multidrug-resistant gram-negative bacteria: experimental and clinical evidenceSerial concentrations of tumor-necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and malondialdehyde (MDA) after bacterial challenge. Experimental sepsis was induced in rats after the intraperitoneal injection of one multidrug-resistant isolate of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. At the indicated time intervals after challenge (n = 6 per time), rats were killed, and concentrations of MDA (a) and of TNF-α (b) were measured in serum. *P < 0.05 compared with the 5-hour interval after adjustment for multiple comparisons.Back to article page
