Figure 3From: Thoracic epidural anesthesia time-dependently modulates pulmonary endothelial dysfunction in septic ratsComparison of bradykinin (BK)-induced vasoconstriction in isolated perfused rat lungs for evaluation of endothelial dysfunction (n = 6 in each group). The difference in perfusion pressure due to different concentrations of BK (1, 3, and 6 μg) is demonstrated. Data are presented as mean ± SEM. #P < 0.05 versus SHAM; §P < 0.05 versus the same group without TEA; * P < 0.05 versus BK, 6 μg, within group.Back to article page
