Table I.

The necrosis score value (NSV) and the percentage of steatosis in microscopic fields in all examined groups

Variable	Steatosis (% of microscopic field)		Necrosis (NSV)
	Mean	SD	Mean	SD
C-2	0.30	0.42	0.10	0.32
IR-2	2.44#	3.64	0.67#	0.87
C-12	0.22##	0.36	0.11	0.33
IR-12	11.56**,∆	16.48	0.78*	0.83

The values are presented as mean ± SD. C-2 – young rats non-subjected to IR, C-12 – mature rats not-subjected to IR, IR-2 – young rats subjected to IR, IR-12 – mature rats subjected to IR; the difference in steatosis:

^**p < 0.01 (IR-12 vs. C-12)

^∆p < 0.05 (IR-12 vs. IR-2); the difference in necrosis:

^#p = 0.06 (IR-2 vs. C-2)

^*p < 0.05 (IR-12 vs. C-12).
