Impaired Intestinal Mucosal Barrier upon Ischemia-Reperfusion: “Patching Holes in the Shield with a Simple Surgical Method”

Table 5

Data measured from plasma samples of the three experimental groups.

Measured parameter	Sham	IR	PC
I-FABP (ng/mL)	7.5±0.5	86.3±3.7^††	66.8±5.5^††,∗∗
D-lactate (ng/uL)	11.5±0.5	23.5±2.4^††	15.8±4.5^†,∗∗
IL-6 (pg/mL)	92.4±8.1	417.5±47^††	186.6±43.4^††,∗∗

Results are expressed as means ± SD; 𝑛=15 in each group. One-way analysis of variance was used for comparison of all groups. The difference between the groups by Scheffe’s post hoc test: (†): 𝑃<0.05 versus sham-group; (††): 𝑃<0.01 versus sham-group; (∗∗): 𝑃<0.01 versus IR-group.
I-FABP: intestinal fatty acid binding protein; IR: ischemia-reperfusion; PC: postconditioning.
