(A): Comparison of changes in R2* in response to water load in 9 young and 9 elderly subjects. (B): Comparison of changes in R2* in response to water load in 6 young subjects with and without cyclooxygenase inhibition with ibuprofen. Symbols are: (Inline graphic) medulla; (Inline graphic) cortex. Columns are mean ± SEM. NS implies not significant, * implies p<0.01, and # implies p<0.02‥ (From Prasad PV, Epstein FH.
