Acute Hypobaric and Hypoxic Preconditioning Reduces Myocardial Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury in Rats

Figure 3

Infarct size/area at risk in the three groups. Representative TTC staining of heart slices after ischemia/reperfusion injury are presented for all groups. Infarct size is presented as a percentage of the area at risk. Data are shown as median and interquartile range (IQR), n = 8 rats per group.  < 0.01 vs. normobaric normoxia group by one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) followed by Tukey’s post hoc test.
