Scoring system of tissue I/R injury in the intestinal mucosa.
| Grade 0 | Healthy mucosal villi |
|---|---|
| Grade 1 | Mild neutrophil density in lamina propria, formation of subepithelial detachments at the tip of the villi with capillary congestion |
| Grade 2 | Subepithelial detachments exerted a moderate amount of upward push on the mucosa epithelium, moderate leukocyte density |
| Grade 3 | Large subepithelial detachments exerted a massive amount of upward push on the mucosa epithelium along the villi and few denuded villus tips were observed |
| Grade 4 | The villi were denuded to the level of lamina propria and dilated capillaries |
| Grade 5 | Presence of ulceration, disintegration of lamina propria, and hemorrhage. |
