Systemic (syst) and splanchnic (splanc) oxygen delivery, consumption and extraction (DO2, VO2, and O2 ER, resp.) in CT (control, portal triad clamping, ), PTX-syst (portal triad clamping + 25 mg/Kg of PTX intravenous systemically, ), and PTX-pv (portal triad clamping + 25 mg/Kg of PTX in the portal vein, ) groups.
