Table 1.
At the conclusion of the experimental protocols in experiment 1B, no significant differences existed between experimental groups in body weight, heart rate (HR), arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2), arterial pressure of oxygen (PaO2), arterial pH, and systolic blood pressure (SBP). Data presented as mean ± standard deviation.
