In vivo analysis of intestinal permeability following hemorrhagic shock

Figure 4 Increased bowel permeability after fluorescein isothiocyanate-Dextrans-20 after hemorrhagic shock. Small bowel permeability after experimental hemorrhagic shock as measured by systemic concentrations of FITC-Dextrans-20 injected into the bowel. ^aP < 0.05 post-reperfusion vs initial values using two-tailed paired Student’s t-test, ^cP < 0.05 shock group (n = 5) vs sham-shock controls (n = 5) using two-tailed unpaired Student’s t-test.
