	CON	100 IS	200 IS
Heart rate [bpm]	396.5 (363–418)	391 (372–452) NS	412 (364–453) NS
Perfusion [%]	0.0675 (0.044–0.118)	0.0547 (0.029–0.146) NS	0.0401 (0.025–0.138) NS
SpO2 [%]	65.89 ± 10.7	66.94 ± 9.9 NS	67.78 ± 5.6 NS
Body temperature [°C]	36.4 (35.1–36.8)	36.5 (36.0–37.7) NS	36.6 (36.3–38.2) NS

Data are shown as the mean ± SD or median (full range) depending on their distribution.

CON, control group; 100 IS, group receiving IS in the dose of 100 mg/kg b.w./day; 200 IS, group receiving IS in the dose of 200 mg/kg b.w./day; bpm, heart beats per minutes; IS, indoxyl sulfate; NS, non-significant; SpO₂, blood oxygen saturation.
