From: Depletion of myocardial glucose is observed during endotoxemic but not hemorrhagic shock in a porcine model

Figure 4

A) Myocardial and B) skeletal muscle L:P ratios. t0 refers to baseline measurements prior to induction of endotoxemic or hemorrhagic shock. No differences over time were observed during endotoxemic shock. In contrast, hemorrhagic shock tended to increase L:P in skeletal muscle (P = 0.061 for mean difference, P = 0.014 for maximum difference compared to E group). Significant differences for individual time points are marked * for C versus H, + for C versus E, x for H versus E. C, control group; E, endotoxemic group; H, hemorrhagic group; L:P, lactate pyruvate ratio.
