Effect of Contrast and/or Heparin Injection on CBF After 5 Hours of MCA Occlusion in Rats

After Ischemia/Before Ischemia* After Injection/Before Ischemia†
Control (n=8) 20.5±3.20 103.9±11.49
Contrast (n=12) 20.6±2.25 96.4±9.70
Heparin (n=9) 22.9±2.85 124.1±17.08
Contrast+heparin (n=9) 24.0±2.65 119.5±14.06

Data are expressed as the mean±SEM of percent changes compared with control values (before ischemia as 100%). There was no significant difference between groups (overall *P=0.54 and †P=0.28).
