Schematic representation of the present study design Schematic representation of the present study design. Drug treatment (pioglitazone or vehicle) was provided to rats by gastric gavage once per day beginning 3 days before operation and ending 8 weeks after operation. The end points of the present study were 24 hours, 7 days, 8 weeks, and 6 months after operation. Op, Operation.
