The Inhibitory Effects of Naringin in a Rat Model of Postoperative Intraperitoneal Adhesion Formation

Figure 1

NG prevents intraperitoneal adhesion formation in rats on the 7th day after cecal abrasion (n = 8). (a) Intraperitoneal adhesions rarely formed in the sham operation group (sham). Dense and extensive adhesions were formed in all rats in the control group. Most of the rats in the sodium hyaluronate group (HA) formed only slight adhesions. All rats in the low-dose NG group (NG1) had severe adhesions. The degree of adhesion in the rats in the medium-dose NG group (NG2) was less than that in the NG1 group, and this trend was more pronounced in the high-dose NG group (NG3). One rat in the NG3 group had no adhesion formation. Yellow arrows in the images point to the adhesions. (b) The Nair scores of different groups.  < 0.05 compared with the control group. (c) The no adhesion rate in each group.
