Fig 1 Median plasma levels of lactoferrin (LF) during and after cardiopulmonary bypass with heparin-coated circuits and reduced (group R, filled triangles ▴) or standard (group S, open squares □) doses of systemic heparin. Error bars represent interquartile ranges. (Baseline = at anesthesia; CPB = on cardiopulmonary bypass, Prot = after protamine.)
