The difference is statistically significant;
a
the difference from the Control Group was statistically significant;
b
the difference from the adrenomedullin (ADM) Group was statistically significant;
c
the difference from the ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) Group was statistically significant;
d
the difference from the I/R+ADM Group was statistically significant. Different letters denote significant differences (P<0,05).
