Desferrioxamine Reduces Oxidative Stress in the Lung Contusion

Table 3

Comparison of alveolar oedema/congestion scores and leukocyte infiltration of the lung tissue in each group.

Groups	Oedema/hemorrhage/alveolar disruption scores	Leukocyte infiltration
Control	0.00±0.00	0.21±0.13
Control+DFX	0.00±0.00	0.08±0.11
Contusion	2.87±0.97^a,b	3.00±0.00^a,b
Contusion+DFX	1.84±0.65^a	2.11±0.63^b

Data are presented as mean ± S.D.
^a𝑃<0.001 compared with Control and Control+DFX groups.
^b𝑃<0.001 compared with Contusion+DFX group.
