| BDL + lycopene (BL, n = 8) | BDL + vehicle (BV, n = 6) | Sham + vehicle (SV, n = 6) | |
|---|---|---|---|
| BW (g) | 337 ± 32a | 355 ± 27a | 427 ± 30 |
| MAP (mmHg) | 111 ± 22a | 105 ± 12a | 137 ± 21 |
| PP (mmHg) | 15.4 ± 4.0a | 14.0 ± 1.7a | 8.8 ± 1.2 |
| HR (beats/min) | 358 ± 32 | 361 ± 31 | 416 ± 41 |
| SMAf (ml/min/100 g) | 7.1 ± 1.5 | 7.0 ± 1.8 | 6.7 ± 1.4 |
| PVf (ml/min/100 g) | 9.7 ± 2.1 | 11.4 ± 2.1 | 9.1 ± 1.2 |
| SMAR (mmHg/ml/min/100 g) | 14.0 ± 4.0a | 13.7 ± 4.2a | 19.9 ± 2.0 |
| CO (ml/min) | 104 ± 27b | 159 ± 22 | 144 ± 21 |
| CI (ml/min/100 g) | 31 ± 7.4b | 45 ± 9.4c | 34 ± 5.9 |
| SVR (mmHg/ml/min/100 g) | 3.7 ± 1.0b | 2.4 ± 0.5c | 4.2 ± 1.2 |
BW = body weight after different treatments; CO = cardiac output; CI = cardiac index; HR = heart rate; MAP = mean arterial pressure; PP = portal pressure; SMAf = superior mesentery arterial flow; PVf = portal venous flow; SMAR = superior mesentery arterial resistance; SVR = systemic vascular resistance.
