Figure 2

(A,B) Plasma nitrite levels, (C,D) mean arterial pressure (MAP) and (E,F) heart rate (HR) reported in beats per minute (bpm) are shown in subjects receiving 1 (A,C,E) or 9.6 (B,D,F) mg of sodium nitrite infused over first 5 minutes beginning at 0 minutes. Of the 4 patients in the 1 mg dosing group 3 received 1 mg nitrite and 1 received placebo. Of the 6 patients in the 9.6 mg group, 4 received 9.6 mg and 1 received placebo, 1 did not complete the protocol (loss of IV). One patient in the 14.6 mg group received placebo (data not shown). Key shows subject identifications codes and drug assignments; group A received 1 mg and group B 9.6 mg sodium nitrite.
