Relationship between flow rate, nitric oxide (NO) production rate and vascular resistance in the pump-perfused mesenteric vascular bed from pigs at age 3 days (○) and 35 days (●). Values are means ± SD; n = 5. a P < 0.01 vs. 5 ml/min flow rate; b P < 0.01 vs. 3-day-old group. From Reber et al., 2001 (Ref. 79), used with permission.
