Partial Portal Vein Arterialization Attenuates Acute Bile Duct Injury Induced by Hepatic Dearterialization in a Rat Model

Figure 2

PPVA extenuated BDI-induced biochemical changes. Blood samples were subjected to biochemical analysis for (a) AST, (b) AKP, (c) total bilirubin, and (d) bile acids. Data are expressed as mean ± SEM (6–8 rats per group). versus the Sham group; versus the PPVA + BDI group. Differences were assessed by two-way ANOVA and comparisons between groups and at each time point were performed by Bonferroni posttests.
